Can you think of another Golf variant that has shot up in price like a MK4 R32? The Mk5's are also following the trend, especially the blue 3 doors - the magic combination. The car above I spotted on eBay for £13k at 120kmiles, that's the cheapest there, they go up to £45k!

When I worked for VW the MK5 R32 was a real difficult seller, colour or spec didn't matter they were 1.5 ton 250bhp slugs, awful on fuel and with the little brother GTI offering the same 0-60 and huge savings it was a job to find a buyer for each r32 that came through our doors...

I remember distinctly though, how they drove. The noise they made was like no other hatchback at the time, the build quality, the weight and how they were planted on the road made them feel like you were driving something very special.

Add to that the big bumpers and wheels and you had a recipe for a car that has become the ultimate collectors Golf and I would bet prices will not stop rising on these for a long time yet... I have been looking for a project R32 for the channel for a while, the Mk4 is long gone for my price range but I do still keep seeing a Mk5 every now and then that could tempt me, would you like to see me snag one?

Oh I’m going to hear it for this one. 😆😆😆

One is the car your wife would happily park in the driveway.The other is the reason she wonders why you’ve been “gone for 20 minutes” and it’s somehow been three hours. 😂

🇩🇪 Porsche 911

Rear-engined. Timeless. One of the greatest sports cars ever built. The kind of machine that turns every road into an event.

🇬🇧 Ford Es**rt RS Cosworth

A homologation hero with a turbocharged YB under the bonnet and that whale-tail wing. Built to win rallies. Loved by every kid who grew up in the ’90s.

The Porsche earns respect. 🏁

The Cosworth starts conversations at every petrol station. 🤝

One is the sensible dream.

One is the bad decision you’ll never regret.

Which one are you driving?
