The idea of a fast Volkswagen Golf began as an underground skunkworks project in 1975 that went on to become the original hot hatch. Now, over 48 years later, the segment is still defined by Volkswagen’s flagship performance Golf model.
Built to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the iconic Golf R32, the 20 years Edition features an array of styling and performance enhancements over the conventional MK8 Golf R.
With £5,400 of extras over a standard Golf R, the 20 Years edition comes equipped with optimised engine tuning and a 13PS Power increase, ’20 Years’ Styling including exclusive blue badging, Genuine Carbon Fibre Interior Package, ’20 Years’ Puddle Lights and the must-have R Performance Package.
The £2,050 R Performance Package adds 19in Estoril black alloy wheels, a larger rear spoiler, reprogrammed progressive steering and a top speed increase to 167mph. However, the real game changer of the package is the addition of two selectable driver modes. These utilise the car’s advanced rear axle torque vectoring differential to allow up to 100% of the torque to the rear outside wheel in the track-only ‘Drift’ mode, or can be switched to a special setting configured for the highest performance around Germany’s famed Nürburgring Nordschleife racetrack.
Featuring a turbocharged 2.0-litre engine mated to an intelligent four-wheel-drive system with seamlessly-shifting DSG gearbox, the Mk8 Golf R 20 Years offers supercar rivalling all-season speed in a highly practical hatchback body, making it the very pinnacle of the breed.
This particularly sublime example, drenched in a flawless coat of Lapiz Blue metallic paint, takes the R recipe, and adds an even spicier ingredient in the form of a Racingline ECU Tune with supporting modifications to boost the power of this uber-rare golf to 432PS.
Adding to this stunning specification is an additional £5,160 of factory options on top of the 20 Years Specification. Highlights include the Heated and Cooled Carbon/Nappa Leather R Performance Sports Seats, Winter Package with Heated Steering Wheel, Reversing Camera and Heads up Display.

Our exacting standards have been met at each stage of our methodical process for this Golf R to be offered for sale by Automotive Addiction.
The first part of this process is our crucial pre-purchase inspections, this includes Deep-Dive Diagnostics, Mechanical Inspection & Road Test Analysis to ensure what lies beneath the paintwork is of the highest degree of integrity, followed by an in-depth inspection of all exterior and interior surfaces which includes the Paintwork, Wheels, Glass, Tyres & Interior with a rigorous Paintwork Depth Analysis which identifies to us the originality of the paintwork.
Any maintenance identified by us during our inspections have been completed before moving onto our pre-sale professional detailing work.
