Since 1974, Volkswagen has manufactured the Volkswagen as a small family car. The Golf R32 has been released because of the great success of the Golf cars. They have been rated as the third-best selling model in the world with more than 25 million being sold. The 3-door hatchback vehicle is a developed variant of the Golf GTI with better speeds, faster pick-up, more comfort and a sense of exclusivity. The car has been built with a four-motion, 4-wheel drive which makes it an excellent candidate as a cross-country cruiser. It was first introduced in August 1998. With all emphasis being laid on safety and interior comforts the car is a good buy at its current price of $40,000.
