The Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet series

The Volkswagen R32 is well known around the globe for being one of the most aggressive hatchbacks available on the market. Made in limited production, owning and driving one of these machines is somewhat of a privilege. Now for 2011, VW has released the successor to the R32 with the Volkswagen Golf R and it is better then ever. The Volkswagen Golf Rhas the 2.0 liter TSI engine with 265 horsepower coupled with the 4Motion all wheel drive system for the ultimate in handling. The main difference found between the R32 and the new Golf R is the transmission. The transmission in the Volkswagen Golf R is much more representative of the way that the Audi R8 works. In the Golf R the activation of the all-wheel differential no longer requires a difference between the front and rear axle speeds which means power can be shifted from front to rear as needed. This means that while cornering at high speed for example more of the power can be shifted to the rear wheels allowing for less torque steer and a more fluid turn. This is key for dynamic performance handling and safety all around.

When the R32 was introduced for the 2004 model year it was only available in a manual transmission. When reintroduced in 2008 the R32 was only available in a DSG automatic. Volkswagen found that this only was appealing to some of their enthusiast driving base each time. Now for the Golf R, Volkswagen has reevaluated things and is offering the hatchback in both a manual transmission or an automatic DSG which will appeal to a much larger client base.

If you are under 55 years of age then the VW Golf has been a part of your driving life: If you haven't owned or driven at least one variant then barely a day can go by without you having seen one on the road. In deed with the takeover over Skoda and SEAT it is difficult to believe that you don't see a vehicle containing Golf parts every day.

Many of us started out our driving lives in a VW Golf. They were fun and reliable but even a quality car will need replacement parts and spares at some stage in its life. The search for parts can be time consuming, calling main dealers [gasping at the quoted price as often as not] and traipsing round the scrap yards [if you can get there if the car is laid up] and as time goes on the classic Volkswagen parts supply will be dwindling. With scarcity of supply goes a rise in price - so if you need Golf parts or spares at a reasonable price you may need help searching for them.

Getting a search done at up to 250 breakers and scrap yards at one go could greatly improve your chances of sourcing that quality used VW engine or the body parts you need. It will probably save you a great deal of time and money. Let us help your search for cheap car spares. Cheap scrap car parts could help your Golf stay on the road at a reasonable price.

2011 The Volkswagen Golf

Even if the car is a regular little compact - hatchback car, there's nothing really like it. When I started looking into it, I liked it because it was totally different and even the Original Golf Hubcaps had given it some flavor. It's one of the few cars that's great on gas and very, very stylish - or that's what I think.

I think that the only thing with this car is that since the engine it has it's so strong for a small car, you can see it in how fast your gas wastes - so if you like driving fast, try to just try slow or just look at getting another car.

If you were to ask a car expert, they'd probably say that the car is fun and easy to drive. Since the car has so many options compared to a typical hatchback, that's what made it stand out the most.
