I’d say a Golf R has more right than a 530i or a 335d.
It’s bought because it’s the fastest one, with no compromise on fuel economy. Both the BMW’s are ‘well let’s not go too far’ models.
It’s a real shame they didn’t use the 2.5 from the RS3 though…

I know the 335d is PDQ, but are you certain about that? 2024 models: Golf R estate (0-60 is 4.9 seconds, 316 bhp, 310 Ib/ft torque). Obviously no 2024 335d to compare with.
Not a lot in it but that torque makes a difference. Like I said, not picking a fight, but I can't see how the Golf is more worthy than the 335d (and therefore the gatekeeping needs to stop).

Fairly close then. I'd imagine, for the less talented, that the Golfs 4WD would make covering ground quicker easier.2024 models: Golf R estate (0-60 is 4.9 seconds, 316 bhp, 310 Ib/ft torque). Obviously no 2024 335d to compare with.

The 335d is also AWD.....Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
