We've brought together EVERY generation of VW Golf R, and we're about to put them head-to-head over the quarter-mile to see just how well VW's pocket rocket has evolved over the years!
To start, let’s check out the stats. The Mk8 Golf R has a 2-litre 4-cylinder turbo engine that makes 320hp and 420Nm of torque. That power goes to all four wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. This car weighs 1476kg and costs around £43,000 when new.
The Mk7 Golf R has a similar 2-litre 4-cylinder turbo engine that produces 300hp and 380Nm of torque. It comes with four-wheel drive, and the power is sent to the wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. The car weighs in at 1,500kg, and when new the Mk7 R costs around £32,000.
Moving onto the Mk6 Golf R. It's supposed to have 4-cylinder 2.0L turbo engine that makes 270hp and 350nm of torque, however later in the video you'll see what it really has! It sends it power to all four wheels via a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox, weighs 1546kg and would have cost around £31,000 when new.
The Mk5 was the last generation of golf R to have the mighty 3.2l naturally aspirated VR6 engine. In this car it makes 250hp and 320nm of torque. Power goes to all four wheels via a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. It weighs 1510kg and would have cost £24,000 when new.
Then finally we come to the original Golf R. This car has a 3.2l naturally aspirated VR6 engine. It makes 241hp and 320nm of torque. That power goes to all four wheels via a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. The car weighs 1477kg and would have cost just over £22,000 when it was new all the way back in 2002!
So the Mk8 Golf R is the newest car, surely it's got to be the fastest car here then right?! There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!
Thanks to

Ok👍👍👍
4 am upload for me

That MK6 is NOT stock at all.
watch the video
Golf R won btw
(Dont get mad at spoiler, should've watched first)
😡😡😡😡
Why does your MK6 look funny? Something is off 😐
I doubt this a r-line
2 door👎🏽
@@matenzaza3595this is the craziest sleeper build. Looks like a normal 6 but with two droors
Watch the video it explains everything
@@danielainger yeah I saw. Made my comment about a minute after the video was posted and the second I saw the MK6 I knew something was off. MK6 R but with a normal 6 bumper. I knew it had to have been tuned or something
That's not an Original MK6 R..‼️
It is not the MK6 R, this MK6 was a development vehicle with a turbocharged VR6.
Stefan is my spirit animal, man doesn´t even know he exists.
🤣🤣🤣
£33k to £43k in 10yrs. Crazy 🤷🏽
Not really it is 3% Inflation every year.
Congrats, you just discovered inflation.
@hexagonosaurus5848 congratulations, you knew about inflation.
@@BobBaumeister-g8vyea the point is most cars dont have inflation. theyre liability so they go down most 99% of cars
@@hexagonosaurus5848cars dont normally increase in value. 99% of them dont.
South Africa most wanted
Not to be picky, but the R32 isn’t technically a V6….its a VR6. Offset bores but single cylinder head.
Such a cool engine
V Reihenmotor! 😁
OK
Agreed. I’m going to let off Carwow a as content so good. Thanks for reminding me. I’d have forgot.
This is inline 6, no V6. VR means verkürzte Reihe (shortened inline). If you look at the crankshaft you will see that it is an inline engine.
Mk6 vw Golf r is not a genuine golf r of that generation. It looks like a 1.4 tsi 😂😂😂😂
How can you recognise the engine based on the looks? 1.4 1.6 2.0 ? Explain. Its just a base Golf body.
What a strange looking MK6 R
True
Not 6R its R Line modificated
@@edgarcauchy yeah, should've watched the whole video before I posted
I'm baffled. Exhaust, colour and leather door cards
@@Davew335r if only we could still have VR6s on these models
I can't believe how awesome this is!
South African Will Like This One❤
@@mariogamingparadise7600 no they won’t
Nope. I hate them because they're bloody everywhere. Same with BMWs.
@@shamil808 too many Golf R's and BMW's in South Africa for my liking
What a good way to start a day for the South Africans'! 🇿🇦
Just like that MATT just got himself South African citizenship.
You deserve way more views!
That looks like a 20 year anniversary which is 333 bhp 😮
It's vr6 not v6
…ok?
@@LufusPurplehe is right. Single cylinder head with 6 offset bores. V6 has 2 cylinder heads of 3 cylinders each.
@@LufusPurple ok? Might as well write straight 6 or boxer 6 🤦🏻♂️
It's a nontraditional V6, while it doesn't have two heads, it's pistons aren't aligned in a straight line, nor are they horizontally opposed. In the common engine configurations, it's a V shaped, but for semantics, it's a VR layout.
...so 6 cylinders in a V format...V6
The Golf GTI and Golf R can just be a South African car by now
looking at the golf gti drag race comments, i already know there will be 20,000 south africans watching this video
Us south Africans will enjoy this one🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Absolutely loved the MK 4 R32 VR6, sounded amazing stock and was my dream car back in 2004
Golf 7 and 4 are the prettiest by far regardless of the performance
South African people assemble here 😂
We here❤
Hell yeah😂
Phakhathi inside 😂
We here ❤
Clicked on this lightning fast😂
MY FELO SOUTHAFRICANS😂
South A, Sila?😂😂😅
Another Mzansi dedicated video 😂🇿🇦
South Africans are going to love this one.
why
I don't get the South African shtick.
Why?
That 6R looks sketchy.
Because its not a 6R.
I've been requesting this every single time 😢😢..please matt can u drag race these cars McLaren 765lt vs sf90 vs 1000hbp turbo s ... REPLY PLEASEE.....
Too much days goes without a drag race between 3 German brands.... AUDI.... BMW... and MERC✅✅✅✅✅
thats an MK6 tsi. with a different engine. not 6r
How do you know its a TSI? Its just a base Golf chassis with a powerplant swap 😂😂
@@hexagonosaurus5848 we all know what a tsi looks like boss
@@poroskiebw7292 The body styling has nothing to do with the fuel. The base models all look the same. 1.4 tsi/1.6 tdi/2.0 tdi all look the same you dummy 🤡🤡
@@hexagonosaurus5848 you must not be a real car enthusiast
The 6R has a different bumber with different day time running light
Calling all south Africans🇿🇦🇿🇦😭
What a f.. it's not original Golf 6R..definitely has a couple of Stages on it. Moreover, it looks like R-line, and not R.
Mk6 golf R has just sky rocketed more than bitcoin after the first drag 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Who pissed german vin diesel off😅
Race the Audi R8GT vs BMW M5cs vs Mercedes gt63 please carwow
Blue rims ja mirror caps. It's 20Y edition Golf R which has 333hp compared to standard 320hp. That explains the difference in power.
The MK6 didn't even hve the R body kit how didn't you notice that something's not right?
Mat,Agera vs Chiron vs Nevera vs SF90.Please😂!!
When is it time to do every Focus RS?!😉
it is so funny that volkswagen pranked them 😂
This is South Africa 😂😂
its not mk7 but 7.5 with 310hp.
South Africa this one is for you😊
Let's give Stephan/Steffan, a round of applause for being the most stereotypical German today! 🤣👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💐
The fact the 8R came only 0.3s behind the modified cars with 450hp is actually very impressive.
Deliberately dedicating videos to us South Africans at this point 🇿🇦🙌🙌🙌
This was a lot of fun to watch, my favorites are the R32 and the MK8.
Those oldschool vr6 R's are quite cool but you where beter of with the gti, since it had a turbo, you could give it easy more hp than that vr6
I’m pretty sure this is a sponsor by Volkswagen for doing this drag race
Stephan is a real G😂😅😅😂
Finally ❤ Great vid. Mk6 obviously modified heavy lol. Vr 😂
NGL I was expecting maybe an appearance of the W12 prototype 😅
Guys we want the 765lt vs the revuelto not this race u are giving us 😑🤨🤨🤨🤨
🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Am i the only South African excited to watch this drag race? ❤
Hey mat, we need a jesko and Bugatti chiron race
isnt the golf 6 identical as this executive version they made for VW executives, with lambo wheels, and a 6 cylinders ? in their museum it looks like the very said car 😅😅
oops did not look for the entire video sorry 😅
MK6 with VR6 Turbo under the hood hahah :D
highly doubt all these cars are stock.
If you double tap a comment it likes it
That VR6 sounds so good in the mk6🤤
So much fun in a video on R’s. Solid.
The guy on the M4 is so bad driver
Mk1 because of the VR6 no doubt
That’s definitely not a 6R
Is that a mrk 6 r looks like a tsi
That mk6 has to be tuned😂😂😂
When older car are better than the New one :
I edge to you matt
The mk4 looks timeless!
I was already typing the comment to call bs on that Mk.6 and saying it sounds like VR6 in the exterior shots but then managed to resist temptation and kept watching :D
More infos about the mk6

The octane thing.... Ugh.. so many variables... I don't trust lunches on TH-cam.. or 0-60 stated by the manufacturer, or nurburgring lap times, it should be about the experience.
The whole talk about the fuel isn't technically correct.
The horsepower stated by the manufacturer is done with zero timing correction, that is to say the full advance in the base ignition map, under a controlled atmosphere. HOWEVER. The way you guys idle cars in the sun, forever and ever will introduce timing retardation on the base map from higher IATs. The 102 octane in this case will have given you an advantage, because you heatsoak the crap out of the cars you review. You run them back to back and idle them for long periods of time. Hot air means hotter combustion chamber, which means hotter air before compression, so higher likelihood of detonation.
Basically, the way the ECU detects a poor grade of fuel is knock detection. If it detects knock, it will back off the timing, thus reducing the power.
Spoiler : The golf R won🏆
Vw won
You can tell when the wild inflation and money printing machine started after the recession in 2008. The price of the new Golf Mark 6 from 2011-12 jumped nearly 50% and all new models have been increasing in price massively since.
It's not about the tires between 8R's race at the end. It's because the German car is actually a Golf 8R 20 Years Anniversary Edition and it has 333 hp, and more tunes to the engine. That's why it Won.
Is like comparing which breed of dog poo smells the most 😅
FYI, I own a 2015 vr6 CC, 220kw, NA 6 pack 😎
Beautiful cars esp mk1 R32
But it still doesn’t distract us from the fact There are roughly 40 million kangaroos worldwide and there are 8 million people in Ohio so if there was an instance that kangaroos invaded Ohio each individual would have to fight off a minimum of 5…
i had a mk6R, it's no way as fast as my MK8R. That MK6R is not stock, it also doesn't have normal golf R wheels and bumpers.
Mat talking to foreigners - JUST SHOUT LOUDER. What he needs to learn is to S_P_E_A_K S_L_O_W_L_Y.
Would that performance exhaust play a little part in going quicker too. Not a great deal, but a tiny part....? Sounds awesome as well.
Why does that MK6 have the base golf body kit and not the golf R’s ?
It’s missing both bumpers, the skirts, spoiler, wheels & the whole engine🤨🧐
The Golf Mk6 never has 270hp!
It must have 350hp
Why do golf drivers always have to lie?
Ok but why the Mk5 isn't as fast as Mk6 if they both have the r32 engine with a turbo making 450hp? That Mk5 is slow af
Hi Mat, Next Time I'd Like That All of You Pick a Car by the Sound of Car Each of You Like.
If Nick had a Golf 7.5, it would be close (EA888 GenIII). BTW, where's the R20 ??
Dont know why they didn't bring a mk6 R into the race 😂. And a stock mk5 r32. Guess we'll never know 😂
Matt vs hat man lol
I bought a new R32 in 2008, had to sell it 3 years later as I couldn’t afford to run it any more. I still dearly miss it to this very day 😢
Surely that would have been healthy competition if they put the mk6 Vr6 turbo into production with the Audi RS3
What a car
So many comments from people who clearly haven't watched the video.
Why isn't anybody talking about how heavy the cars are like how they criticised the mark 4 golf?🎉
Impressive how close the Mk8 was stock, shame if you own one in the UK it’ll get stolen faster than it completes the 1/4 mile.
Yeah, I knew the MK6 wasn't normal from the review, that's not an R model, it should have 2 exhausts in the back 😅
Why did they get the shift pattern wrong in the automatic!? Up for upshift and down for downshift. That's wrong on so many levels
Tthe golf 6R is not respected why not bring the original car? 6R is so underrated man its sad. The best looking R by far
I thought I was going crazy😭I was wondering why that Mk6 sounded like a 6 cylinder, and why it was walking the 7 & 8
