R2 vs 1980s Golf MK1 size comparison

[Dark-Fx]

I know a lot of us are lookin forward to the R3X, so I suppose this is the closest I've gotten to being able to make a comparison to one of the era of vehicles that they are emulating. A friend of someone I know has one with a custom wide-body kit on it and he just happened to show up today.

Thanks. I guess I'll have to keep waiting for how it sizes up compared to a Mk III golf though.

Having owned numerous GTi's and Golf R's, I love seeing this. Are the backends all aligned in the second picture with the R1T? Just curious if it's representative of differences in length.

I've always preferred smaller, more agile vehicles (especially hatchbacks) and miss my GTi's. Can't wait for that R3X!

I parked about where the side mirrors would be in the same spot. I think the R1T was a bit further forward than that, though I wasn't paying much attention at the time.

This is the size comparison I have been waiting for.
