2003 53 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF R32 3.2 V6 4MOTION 3DR Full Koenig Leather - Black Pearl - Heated Seats Excellent Service History Miltek Exhaust/H&R Suspension Rare Appreciating Classic First registered and pre delivery inspected by Caffyns VW in Eastbourne on 19.09.2003 This a complete factory original example that has been maintained to very high standards throughout its life with a comprehensive service record, a very clean unspoiled interior boot and cabin , A1 mechanicals, perfect tyre condition, and had a historic timing chain and water pump change at considerable cost by VW dealer. Fresh in part exchange, owned by an enthusiast who has enjoyed his car and has improved it in his five-year tenure. It drives wonderfully, with a clean free revving engine, its been set up well and is an accomplished fast road tool. Specification - 3.2 litre, 24 valve engine with 240bhp - 6 Speed Manual - Intelligent 4-wheel drive - Diamond Black Pearl Effect 755 - Full Koenig Leather - Original 18 " Alloy wheels - Electronic Air Conditioning - Drivers centre armrest - Central Locking - ABS / ESP - Electric Windows - front & rear - Power Steering - Heated seats - VW Hi-Fi System available from VW at the time - Multi-function display computer Condition HPi clear in all respects, no adverse history. The paint is glossy and highly detailed with the odd mark here and there, but on the whole looks like a superstar. The interior remains in great order, the seat bolsters are free from damage and the leather is free from nasty creasing with the inner foam remaining firm too, meaning she offers figure hugging support through the bends. Its a clean example. Starts runs and drives as it should, plenty of power, sounds amazing. On The Move Mechanically this V6 4Motion has obviously been cherished. The 3.2 litre, 24 valve engine fires without hesitation and settles into a smooth idle with exhausts gases leaving the engine via a Miltek exhaust system bringing the engine sound alive, the V6 featuring a twin-outlet design. Out on the open road the V6 performs exactly as expected, with a wave of torque she pulls strongly in every gear, there's a lot fun to be had driving this 'wolf in sheep’s' clothing! It feels like a Porsche. Modern engines have no way to compete with the sensations these characterful old school units deliver on, there is a harmony here between man machine and road that is rarely found, and this car has that. Servicing The service book is present with all owner’s manuals in the binder. The service booklet contains 10 stamps this being the tip of the iceberg. Recent service this year, the oil and coolant are nice and clean. Documented timing chain and water pump renewal by Newport Audi 02.02.17 at 117k, so only 4k ago, which brings huge peace of mind, the haldex oil was changed also bringing the bill to £4700, whal. The haldex oil was changed again in 2021 at 120, 581 miles. Current mileage is as pictured 121, 232. Four new sticky Toyo tyres fitted just 500 miles ago with a full laser wheel alignment carried out. The gearbox and diff oil have also been recently changed. The last MOT was July this year so is current until July 2024 and recent tests have thrown up no advisories or concerns. Honest, well maintained and original well-presented example, all tools in the boot, two keys and the soft leather owner’s binder with driver and user manuals. I also have a skinny spare wheel as they never came with a spare at all. Summary The values of this model are creeping up as the appeal of the R32 MK4 continues its rise in demand from millennials and alike as people switch on. These Golfs make accomplished all weather tools with lots of grip and traction and a very lively entertaining engine. They are also timing chain driven which removes the hassle of swapping out belts, and they are hugely reliable and efficient with just basic servicing. Most definitely a modern classic this Volkswagen Golf V6 4Motion ticks all the right boxes. This example certainly occupies the high ground with respect to what’s available in the marketplace. It’s not too low miles that it can’t be enjoyed and not too high that it won’t retain its value.
