    I've wanted a Golf R for as long as I can remember. Even before I had a family, there was something about the versatility of the platform - relatively practical, fast and fun, worked well in the snow, relatively unassuming, and relatively economical. While the Golf R (or GTI) is no super car - it does pack a nice little punch in a very small package. The MK7 Golf R is probably my favorite generation overall, and they are relatively more affordable, while still having most of the modern amenities that I'd like in a daily driver. This is a video just talking about my Golf R daily driver.

    Sweet nicely modded from the PO. Had a MKIV r32 for over a decade sold it for the 5th gen 4runner sadly. Anyways, the last two door option the golf R in the US was the MK6, the MK7 was two door but only in the GTI in 15" and 16'. Golf R was only four door for MK7-7.5.

    Man I never thought you your daily is a VW Golf R. I always thought you drove a truck or SUV of some sort as a daily too. Not to mention I thought you were a Toyota guy. The Golf R is definitely a nice practical and fun daily with the 4 door (or as we say here in Denmark 5 door. We count the hatch as a door too). Have you thought about the Toyota GR Corolla as it too is a 4x4?

    • @LastLineOfDefense
      @LastLineOfDefense  2 дні тому +1

      I'd say my Tundra is more of my main daily - this is mostly a take daughter to school and quick grocery getter, haha. A little better in the road snow and a little more fuel efficient, etc. I've never been a huge fan of the Corolla - mostly a Toyota truck and land cruiser guy, haha

      @@LastLineOfDefense those trucks and Land Cruisers from Toyota is definitely also nice and cool too. Although we don’t get the same trucks from Toyota as you do in North America here in Europe (but you probably already knew that.). I think we only get the Hilux, which is more suited to European narrow roads and the Land Cruiser cost at least 3 or 4 times as much as it does in the US here in Denmark. And then we also get the RAV4

    As a VW fanboy my opinion is very biased. So with that out of the way, imo the Golf R is the perfect daily car. It’s a hatchback so it has decent storage space for your everyday things. It’s quick enough and handles great but most people would look at it and think “it’s just another golf”. It has the bells and whistles, and even though the manual transmission feels sloppy compared to most other cars, you can’t go wrong with the manual or DSG. they take to mods well and if you maintain them they’re reliable. Even just a stage 1 ecu flash wakes the car up so much. They’re a lot of fun, and I wish I would have saved a little longer to get the R instead of the GTI.

    • @LastLineOfDefense
      @LastLineOfDefense  2 дні тому

      Yeah they really have a lot going for them. They get overlooked in the 'hot hatch' department I think just because they're a little more refined, a little more muted - but the performance is there for sure (at least with a stage 1 or more).
