Our most recent review of the 2017 Volkswagen Golf resulted in a score of 8.6 out of 10 for that particular example.
Carsguide Contributor Dan Pugh had this to say at the time: The Golf R's split personality is a perfect blend of daily-driver practicality and powerful performance. If you’re looking to spice up your garage with a second car that delivers head-snapping performance, but that can also be used as a family hauler when needed, then the Golf R should be at the top of your short list.

You could disconnect the battery without any drama, or you could just leave it locked up in the garage. Should you do so you shouldn’t have a problem starting it on your return.
They’ve fixed the faults under warranty, so they have honoured their warranty. If it happens again ask for a loan car to use while yours is being fixed.
There’s clearly no point in talking sense to you, your head is in a complete muddle. You want a fix for your mid-life crisis, yet you talk about resale value, warranty, fixed-price servicing and boring stuff like that. You need to think about what it is you want from your “sporty-ish” car, do you want a performance car that will be thrilling to drive, or are you a park-and-poser and just want to look good when you stop at the café for a latte. The VW Golf GTi is a thrill-a-minute hot hatch; you like the i30N, and both would be good buys. Buy the Lux if you decide on the i30N. You could also think about a BMW M3, or an older Porsche Boxster. I wouldn’t suggest a Commodore SS or a Falcon XR6T ute, they’re a bit boring.
