Volkswagen Golf GTI TCR

Golf GTi TCR

If you are looking for an all-rounder that is both comfortable and fast? Then the Golf GTI TCR is the perfect choice. This impressive hatchback combines the best of both worlds and offers an unforgettable driving experience, time after time. The GTi TCR is equipped with the familiar 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that delivers as much as 290hp as standard. Not only under the hood does the GTi TCR impress, The entire car exudes sportiness. With its front and rear spoiler, side skirts and diffuser, it is a real eye-catcher. This in combination with the sporty red color, and TCR decals on the doors, the TCR will not quickly drive by unnoticed.

The interior is also completely focused on sportiness. The sports seats are upholstered in high-quality material and have a tough design. In addition, the interior is equipped with various technological gadgets, such as a digital instrument panel and an advanced touchscreen infotainment system. TCR comes from the TCR racing series that had its start in the 2015. The approach was a derivative series production car, with limited expansion for racing such as expanded wheel arches and up to 2.0-liter engine capacity. Since car length and width were also limited, mainly hatchbacks were eligible. Many of the common brands such as Honda, VW, Seat, Hyundai, Peugeot, Renault etc. were eligible.

This 2019 TCR in question was delivered new in Denmark (Emil Frey), came to the Netherlands in 2020 through VW dealer Pouw and has been with the same owner for the past 3.5 years. Sprayed in cool red and equipped with a super fast shifting DSG gearbox really a fantastic GTi version.

In addition, technical upgrades such as a larger intercooler, an Akrapovic exhaust incl downpipe and Eventuri intake to make the experience even better. Of course, all parts have been preserved and come with the car. The current owner has always neatly maintained the TCR (fresh oil every 10,000km) and (partially) equipped with Xpel film to keep the car as beautiful as it is now.
 

Our opinion

The Golf GTi TCR is a real powerhouse and just a bit more exclusive (and faster) than a "standard" Golf GTi, especially with the upgrades installed. The advantage of a Golf is that you can go anywhere with it. It is also very practical and very fast. This TCR has been upgraded very professionally. The nice thing is that this was done exclusively at the same tuner.

About the owner

The current owner is a true enthusiast. This is evident not only from the carefully selected
upgrades, but also from the fact that he has fitted the car with Xpel film and the car has been neatly
maintained at the same Volkswagen dealer. In addition, there are some nice cars in the family
present such as a Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS and a Volvo 850 T5R. After 3.5 years GTi TCR
it is time for something else and may the TCR to a new enthusiast.
