MKV R32: A Future Classic
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 ноя 2022
- I bought a MKV R32 which was only available in the 2008 year model and only 5,000 were made. This one is number 866/5000 and it is relatively stock and well preserved. The intent of this car is to become my daily driver in the winter time, but we all know how this is going to turn out.

Some people complained they weren't fast enough but looking back we all wish the golf r sounded like this
My Mk7 is right on the threshold of unusable power. 3-5 seconds in the power band and you’re in felony territory. The R32 is just so much fun to rev out around town, not very fast on the highway but that’s not what it was meant to do
yup, makes me miss my MKIV R32.
the problem was people tought this was more of a performace car rather than a tourer , thats the reason they stoped making them and focused on the 4 bangers
Cars in modern market currently have a higher threshold for power. I should compare this to 2008 versions of other vehicles to see if it really 'slow'.. I've had 2 mkv r32. Driving a stock one is as fun as the turbo build with 417whp. Just a visceral direct experience. Feels better than alot of the other cars I've gotten to drive.
I've had my white one for 7 years now and it still puts a smile on my face every time I drive it. And often on others' faces too - I get stopped and asked about it often. Service guys and tire shops ask me if I'd ever consider selling it. Good call on it being a future classic! I always turn my head when I hear another in the area.
Golf V R32... my all time dreamcar!
Had mine 5 years, welcome to the club👍
Love it so far
Had mines for 6 years on a 2009 plate which was rare
#4355 full engine rebuild with HPA air to water intake manifold, garret gt35r turbo, 3" downpipe, high flow sport cat, stock exhaust, kw v3 coilovers, various supporting parts upgraded. HPA stage 2 dsg tune with a stage 4 haldex tune, hpa sport clutch pack...Love it. I do drive it alot. Not into buying cars to stand and look at them.
Can you tell us how reliable it has been since the mods and any specific problems encountered? Thanks!
Awesome video man! Loved the intro. I'm looking into getting a higher mileage one of these soon so I can put my B8.5 RS5 away for winter. I'm also in CT haha
Raspy❤
I love 2 door GOLF's. It's why I can't bring myself to part with my 2015 MK7 GTI... I've owned 4 Golf's, all 2 doors. Between 2001 and 2015. I wish they would still make the R in 2 door. ugh.
Never too late to own 2 golf at the same time
3069, bought it during August of 2020 so far it's been good the only issue was the mechatronic and shifter solenoid going out at the same time. I like mine it's a lot of fun gets a lot of hate though because it's a DSG and not a Mk4 lol but before it I had a 6-Speed GLI VR6.
Are they not dark cheery red lights on the back in the uk that's what we have same on edition 30 ,, looks like you have the normal mk5.rear lights which are lighter ones ,, but still a beautiful car ,,,,,
Bro thats crazy😂 I also have a mk5 R32 #3505 and it's literally at 176k Miles too🤣 crazy coincidence fr
Getting mine tomorrow cant wait. what coilovers??
KW coil overs, I just tuned the car through UM so stay tuned for that video
Hi Im trying to buy one. How much did you pay for it?
I HAVE NUMBER 3498 WITH A MAGNAFLOW EXHAUST AND TUNE.
I like the all caps 😂
I got a magnaflow on mine too. Was the tune worth it? I was looking at going for a united moters tune. Engine trans and Haldex but it’s like $1500.
@@nathanwarner6577 I’m about to do a triple tune through UM, should I upload a video of before and after?
@@ENGAGE_AUTO_GROUP most definitely, it has my interest peaked

It sounds nice, kindly share what is your exhaust set up?
It’s just a borla catback non resonated, but come to find the cats are almost completely clogged, so we are removing them in the next few weeks with a catless downpipe setup
@@ENGAGE_AUTO_GROUP thanks for the reply...How does it behave when cats are clogged?I own one...
@@ENGAGE_AUTO_GROUP hie brother,did you remove cats now since were mentioning there are clogged?
exhaust sounds great, is it standard decat?
Borla catback with a clogged cat, the cat is getting removed next week with a tune
@@ENGAGE_AUTO_GROUP nice! post a vid after decat please
@@mohammedsuhailsheik691 of course!
They already a classic
Eh, watch the prices of these start to get out of hand
@@ENGAGE_AUTO_GROUP they already do hold decent money here in the uk ...but yes it may well soon get silly..but i think it deserves it.....the mk five golf is still a v good looking car
@@lenep9985 great looking car, but look what happened to the MK4 R32…some are selling for high 60’s with relatively low miles
More videos?
Yes coming next week I did a UM tune and I’m going catless
@@ENGAGE_AUTO_GROUP good, ima go see one tmrw and prob going but it. And I wanna see what tune I can do
Out of interest why are you using the MKV as a daily if like you say (and I agree) the prices are going to go up so much?
The MK5 hasn't really gone up in value as much as the Mk4. I daily mine also until I get a second vehicle.
R32 to me is better then the new ones
Nice audi tt .... I mean r32 😒
I have 663...and I'll take mine over any golf r....period
