Nice car, sensible bloke and a good deal all round. Especially if it’s sold already. I got a far better feeling about this deal than the one Calvin bought a month or so back. Looking forward to more Golf R’s on the channel!
I’ve got a mint 14’ plate black 3 door with Pretoria , leather , every extra , APR stage 1 , 32 k . Had it 6 years totally problem free. Fantastic cars . Quick and reliable
interesting watch as i went from a mk7 golf R estate to c43 estate, make sure you get the amg performance exhaust if you can and premium plus, its a special car then, moved onto EV now as main family car and miss the amg noise
@phiIip488 lol, to be honest I don't mind it, bmw i4 m50 as a daily irs great, didn't say it was my only car, have a weekend car as well that's not EV, for family duty it's perfect to be honest, shouldn't knock it unless you have tried as I always said never but it makes sense for a daily
@@leespowart2808I went to look at one of them, unfortunately I’m too big for the seat why they make it so narrow?! I fit fine in 435d and 440 but not the i4. But tbh, I would prob run one as a daily too I’m sick of paying 200 a week for fuel
@KeyBrosUK yes the running costs are great, used to get around 300 miles max from c43 off £100 or more petrol, get 250 bit less from i4 m50 for around £4.50 electric cost
Lovely golf r - didnt see the damage to the seat but assume it’s the centre piece that’s the kinda mesh material. I had a 7.5r and was always worried about snagging it. Nice guy and a good fair deal
Nice looking golf R that mate lovley in fact man can I just say Calvin that Carly had it’s own free car history checker out now no need for car vertical any more man and it’s awesome to! Thanks 🙏 for another great video mate!.👌👍
I had a 7.5r never saw any leaking issues, the drain can get clogged so just need to make sure that’s kept clear. The surround on the mk7/7.5 does crack because the way in which it was glued to the roof. Vw known problem and they will replace under warranty if you have one. It’s a £1000 repair so beware although the crack doesn’t affect the integrity of the roof or leak at all.
Had an 8V S3 Sedan (2015) and never experienced any creaks or leaks. I’m now in an B9 SQ5 and the pan roof creaks a lot when the components are cool (sitting in my garage over night) and I reverse out onto the road, which has an angled piece of concrete from the pavement to the road. No leaks as yet tho.
@ i had the tiguan r line 2017 pan roof the drain was blocked didnt know this prior and had a massive puddle in the passenger footwell, massive headache vw had to change all wiring under warranty apparently its a design fault
Proper nice bloke. Felt for him - sounds like he’s been half knocked by the business and had to sell his motor to pay his bills. Feel for the bloke, especially when’s he’s as nice as he is. Wish him well!
Is the 7/7.5 the best variant of golf ever?? I’d say so! I can smash mine down a B road give it to the Mrs and she takes its shopping with the kids…. Then smash it off every curb in the multi story
Handling and power the mk8 is better - the torque vertoring is amazing on a country road. I did love my 7.5r though. With Pretoria’s by far the nicest looking golf though
The seat damage is from someone getting in wearing bottoms with zip pockets. The zip catches the edge of the bolster and rips it. Don’t ask me how I know!
Like your golf R 64 94-000 miles I got mk7 in white 3 door 6 manual loaded service history well looked after has to go 😢 I have 4 vehicles 🚗 you can have it a what we buy any car at cheap car good condition Jimmy If you want it 📞
I’ve been looking at the 3 door mk7 no digi dash manual, no electric seats/heated seats. Want it as a long termer weekend toy. Best looking golf imo & will go up when they no longer make golf combustion engines.
Dunno how you give that money for that golf with an exhaust and wheels just sold 69 plate golf r with every extra u can get apart from the exhaust in grey for 20k
Every car and every seller has a unique story, thats why I love meeting new private sellers and listening to them. We could film another 100 Golf R’s and each video would be completely different. So basically… expect loads more Golf R’s 👌
I went on your star ratings for Bianca it was only 2 half stars and the comments are shocking!!!! I was going to buy a car from you but not now I am so disappointed I watch your u tube channel all the time I thought you would be trustworthy!!! So sad 😢

@@CalvinsCarDiary great turnaround for lovely car.
What a genuine seller, felt for him as you could see he really didn’t want to part ways. Great content Calvin, loving the longer and shorter content!
What a sound guy, looks intimidating but great personality. Looks a great car Calvin.
Looks so good with silver wheels. So much better than black.
What a nice chilled out guy, great video Calvin.
3:15 the old owner must have been a really Silly Billy to damage that seat 😂😂😂

Sounds like the businessman he worked for is having money troubles and can't afford to pay him so the car is being sold. Poor guy
I’m sure he’ll get it sorted 👍👌

Jerome undercutting Calvin is always a highlight seeing his face 🤣🤣 good job he's your brother huh 😅
I’ve gotta ask has the second key turned up ?
Golf r is the perfect daily
For a certain budget, but an M340i outclasses this in every way if you have the money.
sometimes the pan roof is not spec'd to avoid the hassle of the dreaded leak from the pan roof
Or the cracking surround as well.
@@enstarcreations didn’t know this. Was this a common fault and was there a recall ?

I used to have a Scirocco on that colour and it looked so good! Better than all the other Sciroccos lol! 😂
I love adaptive cruise too! Am I right in thinking your M3 doesn't have it but you were happy about that?
Yes mate you’re spot. I don’t know why I’ve just never got on with it.
UK prices are crazy that’s a $36k car minimum in California and the Mk8 is over $42k for sure
The mk7s have dropped to much in value the 7.5 is barely holding on its self…
Calvin what a nice man David is good luck to him for his future business ventures and what a great bit of stock he sold you😊❤
Great video Calvin I have really missed these buying videos! Lovely seller and beautiful car!
Proper nice bloke. Felt for him - sounds like he’s been half knocked by the business and had to sell his motor to pay his bills. Feel for the bloke, especially when’s he’s as nice as he is. Wish him well!
Is a 2011 black GT-R with 38000 miles good for a bit of stock?
Yep 👍
How much
Would make a very cool vid!
I keep toying with the idea of trading it in for an E63S 🤔
Yes mate loving it!
Is the deep rot comments bots or do you genuinely watch every single vid I watch all 9ver utube 😂
Keyless entry is an option, thankfully mine doesn't have it!
Same here a ghost and an old skool ignition barell and key and she's not going nowhere lol
My 7.5 doesn't have keyless. I had a good tracker fitted & use a disklok.
mines keyless but i just coded the keyless out
I would've bought it! Noice car! Prefer lapiz blue tho
Is the 7/7.5 the best variant of golf ever?? I’d say so! I can smash mine down a B road give it to the Mrs and she takes its shopping with the kids…. Then smash it off every curb in the multi story

Love the content I have it running when I’m sleeping 😂😂
People moaning about calvin buying golf r’s. He’s a car trader. Obviously he’s going to buy them 😂
Absolutely right.
Don’t like it, don’t watch.
It really is that simple. Idiots.
In my opinion that’s the nicest colour to have on an r especially with the wheel
I agree the wheels and colour on this car work so well 🔥
What website did you use to view the car’s optional extras spec list ?
This colour does come on the mk7 I had it Ca64ybf 2015 had to sell when I lost my job 😢
From what i believe the 7.5's was all keyless.
strange how they spec an Akrapovic but basically nothing else... Car looks very clean though
Hello from Ireland, Calvin. Wicked video buddy. Well done, loved buy 🙏🙏👌👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Oh wow I'm just now seeing this vid an wud of loved to have this car as i will looking round for one soon, but I see it's already sold.
“You do look a bit polish”
Awesome! I was about to buy a similar one but didn't. Maybe some day. Enjoy!
That's a very nice golf 😊
21k for that 😫 I bought my 7.5 gti (very bog standard spec) for £22.5k only 2.5 years ago, provably get £14k for it now
Its a golf r its got nearly 100bhp more as standard an this ones not standard it’s mapped an its a high spec
i bet he sold it for at least 25k
How can I get a spec check for my car
Car vertical use code CCD for a discount 😊. Or ring your manufacturers car dealer.
@@darkbassi5911😂
@CalvinsCarDiary always onit and got to look out for our boy Calvin.
The seat damage is from someone getting in wearing bottoms with zip pockets. The zip catches the edge of the bolster and rips it. Don’t ask me how I know!
I’d say that’s a good guess.
Not a guess lol, I did the same to my Golf R! 🤦♂️
Like your golf R 64 94-000 miles I got mk7 in white 3 door 6 manual loaded service history well looked after has to go 😢 I have 4 vehicles 🚗 you can have it a what we buy any car at cheap car good condition Jimmy
If you want it 📞
Someone’s retro fitted rear camera Calvin
What makes you say it's a retrofit out of interest.
Didn't see the seat but personally that would bother me if I was paying £20,700 .
really? go try find one with this mileage and spec for £20,700 🤣
i bet he sold it easily for a lot more
Love a Golf R!
We didn’t see the seat !
How did the first owner not get a pan roof but paid 1k for them 4 tips!! Darn it man😢😢
Looking from Ireland and crying.Basic golf R 7.5 with higher mileage here 36 000 euro.

I have poor man’s spec but also have non of the issues 😂
Paid 24k for one in 2018🤢
Nice don't get me, wrong and obviously now sold, but... Why from new would the first owner spec an akrapovic, but no pan roof🤔 or leathers 🙄
You obviously don’t know these cars

@@cjeddy2076 leather and roof are terrible options on the mk7
@@chriswastle 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@cjeddy2076 the free alcantara on the 7.5 was better, the sunroof surrounds crack and looks shite.
Who in their right mind goes all out for the akrapovic but then doesn't get the leather seats lol
Patiently waiting for the leather seat haters to reply to this… 😆
@CalvinsCarDiary or it's coming...I've just lit the fuse 🤣
I prefer the cloth interior. I'm in the minority. But the cloth doesn't irritate my skin.
Yep cloth for me all the way but I think it’s just the old skool nostalgia in me 😊
I've got the leather so maybe I'm just biased lol.i genuinely would rather have the leather than the akrapovic though

Bought.. why do people keep saying brought .....brought us to bring ,bought is to when you buy

19k that was worth to sell at 21.5
