This video is Rubbish… everything about this Car is Amazing

Completely agree! The guy needs to educate himself about the MK5 R32 and about DSG!

Prices that some of the cleaner ones go for have already proved you otherwise 🤷‍♂️

Price does not = a car being a future classic … The mk1 focus RS is a future classic however the mk2 cost more currently. The mk5 is desirable and enjoyed by many (including myself) and worth the money people ask for a clean example, that does not make it a classic. As I stated in my video, the existence of the MK4 R32 will hold the MK5 R32 back purely as it was the first.

@@antonlevelup I agree in some ways but disagree in others. A car being the first doesn’t necessarily restrict what the later versions will do in the market. While I do agree that the mk4 golf will end up being worth more, the mk5 will still be a future classic. The focus as an example doesn’t make much sense because I think the mk2s will continue to be worth more than the mk1s. With your logic mk3 golf vr6s should be worth a tonne by now. Asking 15-20k tor 15+ year old golfs isn’t normal 😂 15+ year old anything rarely goes for that sort of money unless it’s a supercar or a future classic.

Mk5 r32 doesn't looks special. Front end similar to jetta with the chrome.. seats are like tdi seats.. side skirts tiny.. don't think it will ever be something that is desired.. awsome car tho.. mk4 R32 is some thing special built by enthusiast big beefer bumpers konig seats 4wd it got the lot.. the shape is absolutely timeless. Mk3 vr6 was to plain apart from the lovely vr6 engine

I have both a mk4 and mk5 r32. Love them both! Mk4 absolutely is my favorite between the 2 and its more aesthetically pleasing. But you’re right about the mk5, definitely more desirable with the dsg

Agreed I have MK4 r32 for few years and my mate has the mk5 r32 In dsg.. mk4 feels more raw and special I gets guys praising it all time.. mk5 I don't when drove his and the dsg is nice and comfortable but the mk4 r22 feels faster.. the dsg is like it always in a higher gear when you want to put foot down feels abit less go then the mk4 manual

I just picked up a 2008 DSG R32. It’s the last NA Golf R, perhaps ever. I’ve been to a couple show and shines and can confirm that on at least a dozen occasions the words “classic” have left people’s mouths when commenting on it. Consensus says you (one guy) are wrong, but hey..you got me to click on the video (I see what you’re doing here 😏). Also, well done on the vid. Keep it up! 🙂

You are right about the vw performance R range they should look aggressive, I when for a 16 plate scirocco r over a golf. It's all about the looks. 👍

Thank you mate, yeah that’s the plan hopefully, well at least while the weather is good anyway 😂

i think hot hatches should all have wide arches so you can seperate from the lower models. its a shame the mk4 doesnt have wider arches regarding the mk2 focus rs is will definitly be a future classic its a wide 5 pot rs with wing backs and very agressive wait till the electric takes over cars are dull now

Random cream trim inside the tailgate, did someone forget that bit when they swapped out the headliner etc for black ones? 👀😂

2:00 I don't agree with the mk8, I think it took a step back like the mk4-mk5 on the meanness appeal. Mk7.5 looked much more aggressive vs the mk8 and lost many of the aggressive lines.

@antonlevelup

I think in stock form you are correct, the 7.5 is a much better looking car but wit a few simple modifications the mk8 is a very aggressive looking car with a very box shape up front and behind. Not overlay keen in stock form.

The mistake vw made for the mk5 was to not offer the 3.6 to make it special! Is it really slow stock? Not really, it kills all gti's at the traffic lights, and the V8s. Thats good enough for me.But yes, mk4 more status for sure.

Enjoyed the video even if I disagree with many on the sentiments. There is no malice in it to your credit. As you correctly point out it comes down to personal preferences. To me the Mk4s are ugly ducklings. They are boxy, boring & is not remotely visually appealing. They can’t handle a corner & other than there not being many of them I cannot understand the fuss. The Mk5 R32 especially in 3 door form is not only much better looking machine but a much better all-round car. That said I agree with you that the Mk6 R is better looking, for me the best looking Golf R of them all. I have the manual R32 & here in Australia many consider them more desirable due to their reliability, durability & affordable maintenance compared to the early DSG offered on the R32s. They are already a classic & will become considered even more so as time passes. I think your Mk5 is beautiful & love the Supercharger. It’s a fantastic addition & addresses the lack of power of the VR6. Thanks for the video.

Just the fact the mk5 r32 didn't have a manual trans option mk4 for me.
