I'm so pissed we don't get this in the US.

[digitaldreamer]

Perfect blend! The car that does it all.

[Charris]

Why can't I have this in the US? I want it so bad!

[UNCLENUFF]

I need this car. I guess there's not enough Americans who drive wagons for VW to get them USA ready. I'm soooo sad !

[Deedzy]

Don't mean to revive an old review, but im confused... the reviewer praised the car but only gave it a 7.8/10... so what was wrong with it?

[GenjiPrime]

Having to drive a S3, seeing the Golf R wagon is basically music to my ear 😂😂

[markzed]

I have a Golf R Grid Wagon. Loving it.

Love to see an Alltrack with a faster engine.

Wish we got this in Canada.. the next affordablr performant wagon would be a c43 estate.. but its a bit more $$

[callumbalodis]

Gosh I dont know if its the filter youve used or the colour of the car that turns me off.

[danhaslin]

Could you please do a comparison with Subaru Levorg ? thanks

[harrywang]

I know it is not designed for offroad, but does anyone know the off-road capacity of golf r wagon ?

[Jon_Drew]

The car is perfect. Now bring it to the USA!

[CrossTrekking]

Bring it to America! I know they won't. Apparently we just don't get it, and our roads are too crappy.

[EDHBlvd]

This car would get me driving VW again. Too bad it will never exist in North America. Shame.

[swordsy]

This guy is a bellend, but it looks like a great car
