Half of the 851 verified odometer readings sit above 77,264 mi and half below it.

Work from the median final bid on this page, then adjust for the repair in front of you. A Volkswagen Golf R with light front-end damage and keys sits near the top of the sold-price range; a water loss without keys sits at the bottom.

Does the model year change what a Volkswagen Golf R sells for at auction?

Are these final bids what a repaired Volkswagen Golf R would sell for?

No. These are auction results for damaged or salvage Volkswagen Golf R vehicles — the price at the close of the sale, before transport, fees and repair. Retail value sits well above them.
