Volkswagen Golf R32 (05-08) - Review Review by Dan Harrison on 26 January 2006 Last Updated: 28 September 2009 If the thought of a GTI is just a little too everyday, then this could be the Golf for you. It does without the lurid colours and loud bodykits that you'll see elsewhere in the hot hatch world - the only visual difference between this range-topper and a standard Golf are a few subtle styling tweaks and a redesigned front end. What you do get is one of the fastest and most powerful Golfs ever produced with a 250bhp 3.2-litre V6 and four-wheel-drive for excellent grip in all conditions. It's the gentleman's, rather than the boy racer's, hot hatch. 4.5 out of 5 Other Volkswagen reviews Summary Facts & Figures Equipment Driving & Performance Comfort Costs Safety & Reliability Buying & Selling Also Consider Company Car Info Owners' Reviews Gallery 5 out of 5 Safety In addition to a five-star Euro NCAP crash test rating, there's ABS with brake assist, an electronic stability programme, twin front, side and curtain airbags, five three-point seatbelts, Isofix child seat preparation and traction control.
