@Pᴀᴜʟsᴛᴇʀ2 complete opposite here.. Golf-Rs are everywhere

@motosubatsu - You sure it's just not a bunch of pasted on eBay badging? ;-)

@Pᴀᴜʟsᴛᴇʀ2 there's a few reps of course, but mainly they are the real thing. The 'R has been available on really attractive lease deals here for the last few years

@motosubatsu - Kewlio

@Pᴀᴜʟsᴛᴇʀ2 yeah a friend of mine is on to his third in a row - they keep offering the deals so he keeps getting new ones when the lease runs out

The "Lease" option ... otherwise known as the "Fleece" option.

@Pᴀᴜʟsᴛᴇʀ2 indeed.. it's not my preferred option, it can make sense in some circumstances though

@motosubatsu - Having sold cars in the past ... the only time I could see use of a lease was if you were trying to get unburied from a purchase, where at the end of the lease you could once again start at zero.

@Pᴀᴜʟsᴛᴇʀ2 yeah that's one.. there are uses here as ways of managing the company car hassle as well

@motosubatsu - Yah, for business it's a whole different thing ... definitely a way to manage costs. I was thinking mainly for consumers, not for businesses.

@Pᴀᴜʟsᴛᴇʀ2 oh I meant from a consumer perspective - it might not be a thing on that side of the pond but over here it's not uncommon to be given a monthly stipend to get a "company car" - and that often comes with certain requirements such as it being relatively new etc

And yes, works there as well.

One of the COOLEST cars ever created. This is the car which made me fall in love with motorsports, and I'm not even a big fan of the '69 Camaro (way too popular). This car is nothing but AWESOME.

A few years ago, this car burnt to the ground. There was a fuel leak near the exhaust manifolds, which caught fire. A few months later, they had it completely rebuilt.
