2026 Volkswagen Golf R Black Edition

The Mk8.5-generation Golf R is the quickest and most capable series-production Golf, and this 2026-registered Black Edition adds a few cosmetic touches to a package that already includes 4Motion all-wheel drive, a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder and a seven-speed DSG. Power is rated at 328 bhp and 420 lb-ft, with a top speed of 168 mph, and the torque-vectoring rear axle is what separates the R from lesser hot hatches when the road turns damp or tight.

This example is finished in Grenadilla Black and has covered 8,661 miles, so it is barely run in. The one listed factory option is the tilting and sliding panoramic sunroof. Matrix LED headlights with automatic control, keyless entry and a front and rear parking sensor package are also fitted, along with wireless inductive phone charging.

It is a recent car with low mileage, and it keeps the practicality of the standard Golf, including the large boot and five doors. That makes it a usable everyday performance car rather than a weekend toy. The page does not state the number of previous owners or the service history.
