Volkswagen Golf R 2011
Volkswagen GTI Golf’s have always been my favorite Car. I came across this preview of the 2011 Volkswagen Golf R.
Have a read:
R32. That three-character alphanumeric code is capable of kick-starting a whole subculture of hot hatch fans into overdrive. And for good reason–the Golf R32 was one of the most complete packages on the market, with power, handling, features and style for a still-affordable price. The R32′s successor, the Golf R, was first revealed last year in Frankfurt and now we have new images and details following the car’s driving launch, which took place in Ellmau, Austria over the weekend.
The 2011 Golf R features the same powerplant as the off-limits-for-us Scirocco R, as well as a 4Motion all-wheel drive system that sends the mill’s power to the ground.

The 2010 version of this Golf was also really cool.
After reinventing the hot hatch as a V6 nearly 20 years ago, Volkswagen has ditched the concept and returned to its four pot roots. But is the new 2010 VW Golf R different enough from a GTi to justify a £30k price?
So what was wrong with the old VW Golf R32?
Not much, at least in terms of the way it drove. The 247bhp V6 made the right noises and felt suitably swifter than the contemporary GTI. It’s all to do with CO2.
The old R32 coughed out 257g/km of CO2 and couldn’t manage more than 33mpg. Now with a blown 2.0 four-pot under the nose, its successor, the new 2010 spec VW Golf R, is a 199g/km, 33mpg car yet gives nothing away in terms of performance.
