That's really good of you, I work in Manchester and live in Congleton is either of those near you? 


Just tried to pm you but I don’t think you have enough posts to receive them.

 

I work on the outskirts Manchester City centre but I am off for a couple of weeks now and unfortunately live a fair few miles away from you 😫. 
 

my parents live in Altrincham which isn’t a million miles away from you so if I am heading that way I will let you know…. Keep posting so I can pm you ha ha

@cad121 - I don't think faddy is calling you out on BS - more the dealer.. I tend to agree, it seems a strange policy - maybe turn up and talk to them to see if that changes their tune any?

 

"I'd like to talk about purchasing a Golf R" might be the best way to start rather than asking for a test drive straight away...

getting a test drive in a Golf R is much like making love to a beautiful woman :D

 

As in get it over as quick as possible so you can return home to wifey :)

 

Try this approach

 

A M8, you got one of them Golf R things that I can thrash around for an hour?

 

Seriously though he did say he would phone me to arrange a test drive :)

I've yet to see a mk8 R in the flesh let alone drive one :D the only time I've been in the dealership in the last year has been for my 7.5's service (and again to have it valued) & they had no mk8 R on site. Like Rebecca - I took the plunge in February without having driven or seen one (not that I condone this sort of 'blind faith' behaviour).

...I dare say the first I'll see will be my own!

I am in Derbyshire. Work a lot in Buxton, Glossop  and Leek area's (Not a million miles from Machester or Congleton) as we have building sites going off in these area's. Happy to meet you if you are still struggling and let you test drive mine.

That would be amazing and is very good of you. Perhaps one night after work in the week? 

I'm not upto the required amount of posts to direct message. Hopefully soon

Got a road test booked for a 135i on Friday.
Need to drive one before deciding if it’s one of those or a mk8 R or clubsport 45
Doesn’t seem to be any mk8 stuff around here to road test

The exact same route as me, I've  test drove the BMW m135i, test drove the Leon cupra, i30n just want to test drive the mk8 r and struggling. The other cars were ok but the GFV on all but the BMW were rubbish meaning that payments were high or higher than would be for the golf which is more money. Which is pushing me more to the Golf

I also fancied a road test in a Megane RS trophy but nobody has any of them either!
I kind of grudge the £40k tax rip off, neither the R or clubsport 45 can be had without the premium tax.
