Mycarcheck.com recorded 6,733 look-ups covering 1,948 different VINs, giving a substantial snapshot of interest.

It suits keen drivers wanting everyday comfort, useful rear doors and boot space, plus confidence in poor weather.
Its four-wheel drive helps put its strong power on the road, while Discover navigation and a six-speed manual add useful everyday appeal. Compared with a Ford Focus ST or Honda Civic Type R, the Golf R is a more discreet, all-weather choice; running costs may be higher than a regular family hatchback.
