Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Golf R Mk 7.5 options

    Hello to the Golf R owners. We own a 2018 Golf GTi and I am considering a Mk 7.5 Golf R for myself, and leaving the GTi as a second car for my wife (and kids and dog to continue to trash). I am thus very familiar with the brand but am finding it hard to “value” a 2nd hand R at the moment given when new there were a few option packs on offer, while DAP seem to have been included as standard sometime in 2018. So my questions are as follows, with any help appreciated:
    - when offered as an option was DAP about $1500 ie similar pricing to the GTI in early 2018.
    - when did DAP get included in the standard spec on the R (was it about Aug 2018 onwards)?
    - what was the cost of the Dynaudio Premium Sound option on the R?
    - similarly how much was the sunroof option on the R?
    Cheers

    I have a R Wolfsburg only done 29000km built June 17 but an 18 model registered Sep 17 no DAP no sunroof but it came with Dynaudio as standard it's a very good sound system I seem to remember Dynaudio was around $1500 when seperately ordered.

      As an FYI, the options on the car will have very little impact on the 2nd hand value. Condition and mileage is much more important. Oh, and manuals are worth more

      Changes to standard equipment came in on MY19 models built from July 2018 onwards I believe.

        Yes, that sound like my recollections.
        I ordered a MY19 in late 2018 and by then (Oct ‘18 I think) DAP was standard, only options were paint, Dynaudio and Sunroof.

          Yes, on the hatch for MY19, only DynoAudio and the Sunroof were available as options. Paint and DAP was standard.
