2024 Volkswagen Golf R — 50,000-mile ownership report: what actually broke? — Salt Lake City / buyer question

2024 Volkswagen Golf R, about 6,500 miles. I just crossed 50k miles and want to log maintenance, unscheduled repairs, tire life, fuel economy, dealer visits, annoyances and whether I would buy the same car again. If I figure it out I will update the thread. What would you check next?

I would not stare at the monthly. I would not wire money until I've seen the 2024 Volkswagen Golf R and the title situation in person or via a trusted PPI. Screenshot the worksheet if you can. Learned this the expensive way on a previous car. I'm keeping receipts and dates in one folder.

If I were shopping this, i would not wire money until I've seen the 2024 Volkswagen Golf R and the title situation in person or via a trusted PPI. That's the part that actually changes the decision. A shop burned me once by skipping that step. If they only talk monthly I'm walking.
