Description

Volkswagen Golf R32 3.2 VR6 DSG Deep Black 170k Miles 4,150 Deep Black Golf R32 DSG. 3.2 VR6, 4Motion, DSG gearbox. One of the last properly engineered hot hatches before everything went turbocharged and soulless. Drives, sounds and pulls exactly like an R32 should. Just had the important stuff done gearbox oil, Haldex oil, brake fluid and engine service all recently completed. Ready to drive away and enjoy from day one. Key Details: - 2008 Volkswagen Golf R32 DSG - 3.2 V6 (VR6) naturally aspirated - DSG automatic with paddle shift - 4Motion / Haldex AWD - Deep Black metallic - 170,000 miles - MOT until May 2027 - HPI clear - V5C present - Large folder of paperwork and service history Recent Maintenance: - Gearbox oil changed - Haldex oil changed - Brake fluid changed - Engine oil service - Brakes in good working order - Tyres with solid tread all round How It Drives: Starts cleanly, idles smoothly and pulls hard through the gears with that unmistakable VR6 howl. DSG changes are crisp, the car feels solid on the road and tracks straight. Everything you want from an R32 and at this price point, a properly usable everyday performance car. Condition: Presents well for age and mileage. Deep Black paintwork still looks great under the light and the classic R32 styling has aged better than anything else from that era. Underneath looks tidy from inspection. Honest Notes (Because You Deserve The Full Picture): This is a 170k-mile R32 not a museum piece, but a properly used and properly maintained one. - Headliner has some sag (common on these, easy fix) - Minor surface rust around the sill area nothing structural from inspection - Age-related stone chips and marks, but paint cleans up well - Window tints need peeling or redoing - TPMS light is on (tyre pressure sensor issue tyres hold air fine, no punctures) - Diagnostic scan shows a code for the ambient air temperature sensor does not affect how the car drives. A replacement sensor is included with the sale. - Dashboard otherwise clear of engine lights Why I'm Selling: Bought it because I've always wanted an R32 proper bucket list car. Realistically the long-term running costs and insurance at my age don't make sense, so I'm passing it on to someone who'll actually use and enjoy it. The Bottom Line Honest, usable, properly maintained R32 with a folder of history, fresh fluids and a fresh MOT. These don't sit around long at this price with this spec.
