biggrim 0 Posted August 14, 2003 Was at the Stealer this afternoon ordering bits for the C and spotted one of the R32's in the showroom. "Cool" I thought to myself until I spotted that it was indeed........ a FIVE DOOR!!!!!! :roll: Why oh why did they make "the fastest production golf ever" in a five door? Do you see Porsche making FIVE DOOR 911's? Had to get that off my chest, sorry. Now where did I put my tablets... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GazzaG60 0 Posted August 15, 2003 the old fast production golf the G60 LTD was a 5 door. 210hp 4x4. bet thatud give a R32 a v good run for its money but yes why? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paul 0 Posted August 15, 2003 I'm actually glad there is a 5 door model of the R32. I start a new job in 10 days time and the car allowance will stretch to a new R32 but one of the stipulations of the allowance is that my car must have no less than 4 doors. It may not be the most desirable as the 3 door but at least it means its on my list of cars to try. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GazzaG60 0 Posted August 15, 2003 thats a good point. the company car sector. the G60 ltd was a wolf in sheeps. nowadays though ther company car sector is bigger than private in that price bracket. good marketing maybe(if there is such a thing as a good marketeer) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paul 0 Posted August 17, 2003 paul........you jammie jammie so and so bagsy a spin in it if you get a R32 ........give you a drive in my C if you want I really wish I could say that I'm getting one but its just not going to be practical enough for the job and for carrying mountain bikes and associated gear. I test drove an 18 month old W8 Passat estate yesterday and they have given me a fantastic deal on the price and on my jeep so i may plump for that. It wasn't the fastest car off the line (7.5 secs or so) as it has a tiptronic box but through the gears it was mind blowing and it sounded great too. It would be a good Q car as long as people don't notice the 4 big exhausts sticking out the back.... :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
