1984 Volkswagen Golf

While the Volkswagen Golf may seem relatively mainstream in the United States, it’s a big deal in Europe. That’s because when it debuted for the 1974 model year, it was seen as a modern, value-packed, front-wheel drive family car that was economical and more importantly, fun to drive. Then, Volkswagen introduced the Golf GTi in 1976 and created what we now know as the hot hatchback. The Golf remains on sale to this day, and there’s a variant that’s even hotter than the GTi in the Golf hierarchy. That variant is called the Golf R, which debuted with 2012’s seventh generation. Today, we’ve got an example of a seventh generation Golf R for sale. Say hello to this 2019 Volkswagen Golf R with less than 52,000 miles from Hialeah, Florida. It’s the perfect hot hatchback slash family car for someone who’s a petrolhead but needs a suitably comfortable, practical and well-built vehicle that’s also compact, and most importantly, not an SUV!

The 2016 Volkswagen Golf R isn't just a sportier GTI—it's the ultimate expression of what a Golf can be, and then some. This hot hatch offers exceptional value, especially when you consider its nearly identical engine and chassis to the more expensive Audi S3, while still delivering the everyday practicality you'd expect from a Golf. Volkswagen's engineers have perfected the art of creating a nimble, confidence-inspiring machine that’s ready to be thrown around corners, all while maintaining a civilized ride and impressive fuel economy. If you’re after a blend of performance and practicality, this 2016 Volkswagen Golf R 4MOTION, equipped with an APR Stage 3+ kit, might just be your dream car.
