2016 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF

This is a very straight unmolested Golf R estate, possibly one of the ultimate Q cars. It has 65,500 miles on the clock, 2 previous owners and a full service history. All the important service items have been done at the correct service intervals (DSG gearbox oil, Haldex oil) and the water pump and thermostat changed. The car has a full MOT history with no advisories in the last couple of MOTs.

The 2016 Volkswagen Golf R Estate combines high performance with wagon practicality, featuring supportive cloth/alcantara, blue instrument needle accents, carbon-look dash trim, ambient lighting, a 6.5-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and a cavernous 605-liter boot.
