Golf MK4 or MK5 R32?

Some of you know I will be after a new car during the summer at some point. I had been dead set on a MK4 Golf R32 but from checking out Auto Trader the other day the MK5's with still relatively low mileage (35-50k) aren't selling for much more than the MK4's. Which got me thinking it might be worth looking at getting the newer model.

I like the look of both cars, but can't help but think the MK4 looks abit better. Also, alot of the MK5's have a DSG gearbox which I wouldn't want tbh.

Just thought I'd see what the general opinion around here is

oh shiznit thats a right toughy that one hmm
id rather have a mk5 than a mk 4 in fernes

Black mk5...sweeeeet

One thing is for sure ... it will be blue. I love the blue on an R32

blue mk5 slamed on blue colour coded bbs rs :D

personally i'd go for the MK4 in that blue with the multi spoke!

there was one around ere for a bit looked so nice (and a bit cheaper )

the more i drive around and see MK5's the more i think they aren't that special, don't get me wrong they look fantastic and the car is to die for, but it's becoming a bit like the MK3....common!

there's about 5-6 MK5 R32 around here, love em all, but MK4's are quite rare, i don't know if i've seen one for a while actually, there's a lad with a tdi mk4 with R32 style bumps???

take em both for a test drive best way to find out......buy an IROC! 1.4 twin supercharged! meant to be a laugh! or just wait for the MK6 R32

any car with that engine in it is going to be amazing!

OR




if i had my choice an R32 powered MK2 lol

This is true. I used to see a silver one often on the way to work, haven't seen it in months now. I don't think I've seen any others about anywhere.

mk4 all the way!
this is how i see the golfs
mk4 gti or mk4 r32 the 32 wins hands down!
mk5 gti or mk5 r32 the gti looks so much beta than the 32!!
but go with wot u want mate!!

I just don't know. All depends what's about at the time aswel (price wise I mean), I'm hoping prices will drop again with the new Golf released.

or get a s3 mate!!

Although, I do like the look of this one: lol

Nope it's a bloke he's quite old probz about 50-60ish. Standered but it still looks sweeet.

It has to be a mk4, mk5s are ugly.... A mk4 r32 in blue will be my return to dubs when i have to have a car with more than 2 seats...
