Golf R Observations and Questions

[jamesatfish]

One of my mates has a C63. Great car, the noise is to die for. You'll become great mates with the petrol station employees.

Not to mention tyre shops - the rears on ours last around 10,000kms.

ps - it is a rather special C63 ....

If its out of warranty it's not a Black- so here's hoping you're buying the Jaffa motorshow special... love that car!

Edit: Just saw your post above. My assumption wrong. Much respect due!!!

Dealer has arranged a special loaner for me while my R is in for its 30k service

Let's just say, non-turbo, VW, 6 cylinders, Golf

Always have been mate

Hence my posts in the R32 thread

We compromised with the GTI, always wanted the R32.

The R is good but soulless

I've driven an R32 briefly, made sure to max it at one point. The sound just melts your ears.

One of my biggest issues with it, I understand what people mean by a car having a soul. My Polo GTI definitely had a soul.

They definitely were not retreads - my bank said so

Go Super Sports mate, these are too soft (ideal for my commute however)

I find on the R they are too soft in the sidewall, even on higher pressures

More weight with the R vs the Muzza and AWD changes things.

Anyone else think the aircon fan strength is pathetic!

Funnily enough I think the exact opposite - on the lowest setting the AC blows way too hard and I have to turn the vents away to keep comfortable once the temperature reaches the desired level.

Interesting. I had mine on full lately and struggle to feel it on my face.
