2017 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF

My wagon is up for sale, great performance and practicality, but we've switched to one big family car and a small hot hatch.

It's been a great over the past few years, I had to replace the water pump recently due to the common thermostat housing leak issue, other than that it's been well-serviced and has been very well behaved.

Services include DSG and Haldex by a VW specialist, receipts available.

VW Golf R Estate (MK7) – DSG – Tornado Red – 72500k miles

Genuine, well-maintained Golf R Estate looking for a new home. I've owned it since 2023 and have kept on top of everything with receipts to prove it.

Previous owner fitted a DKU Performance exhaust, uprated air filter, and a remap — so it pulls hard and sounds fantastic. All-wheel drive, DSG gearbox, and the estate body gives it a huge practical boot. CM Wheels 19" Pretoria-style alloys fitted June 2023 with Michelin Pilot Sport 5s all round (one brand new). Spacers were on when I bought it and have stayed on throughout.
