Hi,

I’m looking for a second hand golf R either 7 or 7.5 around MY16 or MY17 and wondering if there is anything I should be checking when inspecting any second hand Rs? Anything obvious to look out for that is specific to an R?

Also curious if there is much difference in drive/handling between a 7 and 7.5? I can see there’s some obvious interior changes but what about the handling and drivetrain?

Any advice appreciated!
