Which VW Golf should I buy as an everyday car?

I'm looking to buy a golf because I like them but I don't know whether to buy a.. GTI, V6 4Motion, R32. I have cash to buy any, as long as it's a few years old but I don't particularly want extortionate running costs and neither do I want a boring, slow car so what should I do?Which VW Golf should I buy as an everyday car?well im getting a v6 4motion next month, so id say that, but running costs will be high for both the v6 and the r32. they are the fastest and the most kitted out inside(leather, wood, electrics etc), but are 2.8l and 3.2 l. the r32 is barely faster than the 4motion and not worth the extra 拢3000 an r32 demands. the gti's are more practical. the 2.0 is the worst, the 1.8gti turbo is fun but still FWD whereas the 4motion and r32 are AWD, and only produces 150bhp, which for a 1.8 turbo isn't that great, it wont be slow but wont be majorly fast as its a low pressure turbocharger.



so as an everyday car, the 1.8 turbo (4motion returns 25-30mpg) although the r32 and 4motion are top of the range. just dont get the 1.6 or 1.4!! there SLOW! the 1.4 has 75bhp to a 1.5 ton car!



r32, 246bhp



4motion, 204 bhp



1.8T gti, 150 bhp



2.0l gti, 115bhpWhich VW Golf should I buy as an everyday car?
Im a vw fan aswell, if i had the money i would go for the R32 but aslong as you have considered all aspects i:e running cost, parts costs and also insurance. It will cost alot to run this car weekly as you are going to be using it everyday if on the other hand you dont want this expenditure why not get a mk5 gti or mk4 gti as these would be more fuel efficient and still have a good bit of power aswell. I myself am looking for a good mk2 gti i love the retro look preferably 90/91 as these come with PS as standard, so if you know where i can get one that would be great. Back to your question eitherway wharever VW you decide to buy it will still be the right decision afterall german built cars are away out in a league of their own.Which VW Golf should I buy as an everyday car?the 2.0 litre TDI 140 GT 3dr is the best if u don't want a sporty Gti, it is also available as a 5door as well if that's wat ur looking 4.



And it does 57.6 miles per gallon on petrol as well so its good on fuel 2



If ur looking 4 a Diesel 4 cheaper running costs, get the TDI SE which is also both 3 and 5 door. This has an astonishing 61.2mpg.



Note:they don't currently sell the R32 vesion in the UK

Hope this helped
It's a V'R'6, not just v6;). But what you mentioned is all the same car, haha. I would go with the 1.8T GTI or the R32. Considering that you said everyday driving. Go with the 1.8T. cheaper parts, better gas mileage. Or you could go old school and get a mk2 GTI.Which VW Golf should I buy as an everyday car?None of them, they're over-priced, over-rated expensive to maintain and dull as dishwater.

Get a Focus ST or Astra VXR instead.Which VW Golf should I buy as an everyday car?
The new GTI 2.0T get nice gas mileage (around 32 on the highway) and have awesome torque. Look at the specs and decide.
Any of the golfs are good. I have a 1987 Golf GL with 250000 miles so any should last you for quite a while.Which VW Golf should I buy as an everyday car?
Golf GT Diesel.
