The fast one. A MK7.5 Golf R: turbocharged, four-wheel drive, and the most powerful Golf Volkswagen was selling when this car was built. A 2017 on 41,000 km — low for the year, and the most interesting number on the listing.
What makes an R worth the money over a hot hatch is that it is quick without asking anything of you. Four-wheel drive means it puts the power down on a wet Nairobi morning instead of scrabbling, and underneath the performance it is still a Golf: five doors, a usable boot, light steering, and a car you can park anywhere. Two questions matter more on this car than on anything else we have, because they are what separates a good R from an expensive one — whether the engine has ever been remapped or otherwise modified, and when the DSG gearbox was last serviced. Ask us both, and ask for the answer in writing.
