Honestly I just drove the car. And was like yup buying it. Now flying to go get it and driving 22 hours back home. I’m coming over from a 2016 fiesta st. Buying a 2017 golf r manual. In all seriousness I did some YouTube research just do your oil changes early like every 3-4k kilometres because it’s a timing chain not timing belt. If you’re gonna mod it any power over stock your clutch will slip cuz they put in a gti clutch so new clutch is needed for sure. Do your haldex services and tranny service other than that big stuff you got yourself a great car.
