mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

What's the real fuel consumption like? Ie. when you go out driving it rather than driving for "economy".

 

Well having such a bad fuel comsumption does damage the 0-60 since you have to tow a fuel tanker

 

Golfgirl got 30.9mpg on the MFA the other day

I've seen it on 8mpg though

 

Thanks golfgirl
am also after the in gear times

 

Let me guess Gary, was that during the "Shake down test" you gave it when she first got it??

 

No, it was on the way back from the Malvern Show last week with Janet Edwardson on our arse

I average 22mpg - that is 16-18 round town and 24-27 on a longer run. Like Gary said, I got 30.9 the other day but I'm not going to see that very often! It was a 16 mile trip with a mixture of 30's, 40's and National Speed Limits (single carriageway) which I stuck to all the way because I was in no particular hurry!

R32 does the following:

VW Golf R32 2003 237bhp

O-30: 1.9
O-60: 6.5
O-100: 15.6

1/4 Mile in 14.7s @ 97mph

 

Any in-gear figures S1mma?

30-50 50-70 and so on?

Ok the R32 DOES shift from a standing start However*, I find the 3rd-4th gear acceleration more impressive TBH.

*oh god,It's catching

 

Where did you get those figures from? Because the 0-60 and bhp figures are different to mine which I got from the R32 brochure......

 

Brouchure states 0-62(100kph), not 0-60mph so thats why its 0.1sec out

BHP figures are based on the new "PS" figures. The R32 is listed now listed as 240PS. To convert from metric to imperial horsepower, divide the PS figure by 1.0139 = 237bhp

HTH

 

Thanks for the info so far here is the first R32 but only 12V Front wheel drive only this is the first part of my reseach

How long have you guys had the R32? We just had it added to our line up for 2004.

 

Rob will correct me if i'm wrong But I believe it's been available in Europe for about 2 years

 

Came out 2002, production stopped and thats when the US run of R32s started. Same production line, but US cars get more kit standard and pay around 16,000 instead of 23,000. And the guys on the VW Vortex STILL complain thats too much.

 

We've noticed a flat spot in Claire's car that appears to be a common fault - found this on Evo.co.uk

I'm speaking from my experience on Fords I do a lot of re-calibrations to 'cure' driveability woes on lots of new cars, wondered if VW have a re-cal to cure this ailment on R32s?

All done through the diagnostic socket on the Dagenham dustbins
