@@astarcutzz7272 I mean both are great, and I think the arteon looks stunning, but I'd probably opt for the golf R and save some money if it was me. Just my 2 cents
So much more stylish and better in any way than any SUV. The price was their downfall when new though. The BMW 5 series is a better car but can't quite compete on interior space. And please take that phone off your windscreen. A pillars give a big enough blind spot without adding a phone alongside it.
Archie you always make me smile. Your positivity is great. I do hope you get it , to see you Vmax it alone! I am biased as I bought my Golf GT new , specced it exactly as I wanted and is a keeper until I'm forced to hang up my string backed gloves...
My work colleague got one at the end of last year, i immediately had to go for a look as it just looked so good in crayon grey. Had a sit in it and as you say the interior of the R design is mega! Love the shape of a shooting brake ! Never been a massive vw fan but love this id have one! 👌
Arteon R is car has more nicer front end than new E or 5 series. I wish VW made new Arteon like new Passat and add more power... For you just get it...
Archie Hamilton Racing Awesome Video I think it's awesome that you Test Drove that pretty cool VW Arteon R and I think you should definitely get one for the Channel or a Golf R Estate
Nice cars them Arteons.Considered getting the saloon to replace my Passat last year.But it was too big a car for my needs.Great choice and as you said,tuned and tinkered with,and you’ve got a car that could shock a few super car owners
Ahhh! Ok, this makes more sense. That is an amazing beater. I test drove the Arteon R and was left thoroughly disappointed. But I was thinking of performance. As a commuter with _pep_ then ya, I get it.
This would be a brilliant addition to your garage. I would like one myself. After a bit of tinkering, tune it and add some wheels with spacers. Maybe even lowered with a subtle body kit it would look awesome.
🚨🙏Guys, maybe one of you works for Volkswagen or has a friend who works, I have a question: How long do you have to wait for the new Golf r from the factory to be sent from Germany to England? Please answer me?????
I say go for it, don't think we have those in the states...different and lots of potential with tasteful mods...I'm here for track/autobahn run too Archie😂
Very nice. I don't think this model is available down under. Neither VW electric cars yet either. Golf R in the showroom yeah not here. Years after you guys got them they are in short supply. Plus stupid high $85k ask. Lots of Aussies keeping high mileage old cars. Still have my Mkv 2008. No trade in value. A new GTI if you can get it, is also way too much. Sam and Tony were shocked by our used car prices also.
Please if you get it, just leave it alone and drive it. Give us updates, do road trips I want to know what it's like standard, not modified like a demon tweeks Xmas tree
I cant understand how VW thinks with the choise of stickning with that gear shift, they have the exact same in the caddy and transporter and all other of their cars for like 10 years now... Its an R 2023 shooting brake FFS!
Hi Archie ive been watching your channel since you 1st started and this is the very 1st car that you have thought about buying that i 100 % agree with .its fast its practical, it's got 4wd its dsg and it make more sense than any other vehicle you have bought before. I was a classic ford fan but in the last 2 years since i bought my van haven built volkswagan transporter swamper kombi camper im just mad for volkswagan .and in that blue she looks amazing. If you choose to buy it ,you will finally have my blessings 🤟👍🇩🇪 keep up the great work.
Well Archie. I bought the car and it drove crap, gearbox was jerky. I would love to know what you plugged in and why Basingstoke VW let you plug into the OBD port. The surround around the port had been damaged too. We asked them for a response and they've gone quiet. Very unprofessional. I suggest you don't tamper with dealerships cars in the future when your not going to buy them. That will be someone else's pride and joy after you've messed with it.
I’m sorry but you’re telling me VW let you plug in an OBD scanner into one of their cars and turn on a feature that would’ve been optioned anyway on a demo car?
I have a 2021 C8 rs6 urban vorsprung and they aren’t that great, just a passat with lipstick. People think they are amazing, they are average. I really like the look of this car.
For that money we’re talking c7 RS6. Yeah slightly dated but you can find a good low mileage example with all the gadgets, not to mention the sound and the v8 engine. These are a rip off and just a golf R estate basically
Great video love shooting brakes!! Be a little careful changing the car with the OBD tool as insurance might be affected due to taking it away from original spec! We all know they will do anything to get out of paying out!
I think you have gone absolutely nuts!! What has happened to Archie Hamilton??? Perhaps it's something you have ate over Christmas. Go to the pharmacy get a tablet, and you will be fine in a couple of days. Looking forward to the next video!!
Gosh, is this little twonk still going? No wonder he hasn't got any more subs than when I last watched..... in 2018. Same as SOL, Sam, and all the other ones who jumped on the bandwagon yet produced nothing of any relevance whatsoever. Adios.
I have the Skoda Superb Estate version of this car. 360Bhp 4 x 4 DSG, adjustable suspension & electric everything. It's a real life sleeper car that's infinitely practical as a family car with a huge boot. Bigger than the Arteon I think. The Arteon may have the better looks though but the Superb as a used buy is much cheaper.
I can guarantee he isn’t going to buy this car.
Guy is funny init
Cause he’s a badge snob
@@leonwilliams3221😂😂 just a knob!
Confused why he’s whacked an OBD reader in the dealerships car🤣
Finally a UA-camr with an Arteon!
I have 1 and they're criminally underrated. I love mine and I love how rare they are.
That arteon shooting brake does look awesome, but I'd also check out a golf R estate
Yeh, thats the obvious one for Archie's needs
I was thinking thr same, he may aswell get a Golf R estate.
Already had a golf r id say a arteon r is a step up in looks also very underrated car golf r hype has always been there
@@astarcutzz7272 I mean both are great, and I think the arteon looks stunning, but I'd probably opt for the golf R and save some money if it was me. Just my 2 cents
not much price difference if you go "nearly new" ... Arteon a nicer car overall than golf estate and much sleeker looking.
Very understated car Archie....well represented..you've finally seen the light..
Wow Arteon Shooting brake does look awesome 😊
Can’t you do all the stuff shown through the OBD port App in the car’s own settings anyway?
Really like it lad. No brainer for moving stuff and as a daily 👍.
Archie yes mate buy it mate a good choice for a daily you can mod it .and wrap it .great choice archie.congrats on it.from dan.m🚘🚘🚘👍👍👍👍
So much more stylish and better in any way than any SUV. The price was their downfall when new though. The BMW 5 series is a better car but can't quite compete on interior space.

Bring it on Archie lad, perfect daily
The car or Archie ?
Archie you always make me smile. Your positivity is great.
I do hope you get it , to see you Vmax it alone!
I am biased as I bought my Golf GT new , specced it exactly as I wanted and is a keeper until I'm forced to hang up my string backed gloves...
Absolutely fantastic archie Very good
After watching your UA-cam channel it made me want start my own. Growing in confidence and it feels good to be trying something new.
Yes do it
It's such a cool car, you have to get one 😊
Be great content this one, especially with a bit of titavating I've seen some great options on these through maxton design.
Definitely agree Archie,they’re lovely looking cars,I have a gold saloon in my street & it’s lovely.
My work colleague got one at the end of last year, i immediately had to go for a look as it just looked so good in crayon grey. Had a sit in it and as you say the interior of the R design is mega! Love the shape of a shooting brake ! Never been a massive vw fan but love this id have one! 👌
Something about the Arteon, nice all round nice car, and not silly money 2nd hand
I like this car Archie. The golf r estate after a while would just become a golf R & you’ve done that already
I’ve just picked up a Golf R 20 years. You should give one of them a go. Much more lively than the base R.
He had a golf 8 r before and tuned it so I think he kinda has an idea of how a 20 Years wil be
Had mine since last october, cant fault it for a family wagon. 👌🏻
Had one for 6 months as a company car, did me plenty good.
Arteon R is car has more nicer front end than new E or 5 series. I wish VW made new Arteon like new Passat and add more power... For you just get it...
Wish we could get these in the States.
A nice looking car, looking forward to seeing this in the garage

More sportscar owners than supercar owners... you would need to engine swap this to make supercar owners sweat.
And it was a great video and very interesting as well archie.from dan.m👍👍👍
Ahhh!
Ok, this makes more sense. That is an amazing beater.
I test drove the Arteon R and was left thoroughly disappointed. But I was thinking of performance. As a commuter with _pep_ then ya, I get it.
Only thing i dont like is the Gear handle i swear the New golf R have a new gear selector
This would be a brilliant addition to your garage. I would like one myself. After a bit of tinkering, tune it and add some wheels with spacers. Maybe even lowered with a subtle body kit it would look awesome.
Love it! Wanted one for ages. Wife has a Passat now. Unfortunately we can’t get the Arteon wagon in New Zealand 😢
I’m thinking that it will depreciate like a brick from a skyscraper! Great video as always Archie!
🚨🙏Guys, maybe one of you works for Volkswagen or has a friend who works, I have a question: How long do you have to wait for the new Golf r from the factory to be sent from Germany to England? Please answer me?????
They are a cool looking thing in real
Bought my mk4 R32 from there many years ago
I say go for it, don't think we have those in the states...different and lots of potential with tasteful mods...I'm here for track/autobahn run too Archie😂
I believe you must be the son of Dom Joly. I can’t be swayed in this.
It will look good with Vossens and lowering springs.
Great Advert for your mate!

Always had a soft spot for these
Nice car and nice colour Archie. But, i thought VW had just dropped the Arteon! Check out the new Tiguan coming out later in the year it looks great
I cant understand how VW thinks with the choise of stickning with that gear shift, they have the exact same in the caddy and transporter and all other of their cars for like 10 years now... Its an R 2023 shooting brake FFS!

No chance its such a poor advert, the car comes with ACC 😂
Great car got one today ❤
Yeah me too I got 5
You should buy the new golf 8.5 R and modify it
It has a bit of the siluete of the panamera gt
Can't you use public transport for your commute?
I work for VW and this is the biggest joke comparing this to an RS6😂
I have a 2021 C8 rs6 urban vorsprung and they aren’t that great, just a passat with lipstick. People think they are amazing, they are average. I really like the look of this car.
Looks like an elongated Scirocco with four doors to me.
For that money we’re talking c7 RS6. Yeah slightly dated but you can find a good low mileage example with all the gadgets, not to mention the sound and the v8 engine. These are a rip off and just a golf R estate basically
Great video love shooting brakes!! Be a little careful changing the car with the OBD tool as insurance might be affected due to taking it away from original spec! We all know they will do anything to get out of paying out!
does this have the drift diff? it might have 8r's drift diff cause it's the same engine. quite the looker, scary that you can tune it
I’m Jealous wish these would come to the U.S. Very Nice body
VW Touareg R is a daily??
Going tough hook
Looks like renault laguna which is clone of E class ha
I have the Touareg R hybrid and it’s for sale if your interested?
Better than most cars but people like showing off
Not bought and isn’t going to happen
Theres thick jealous jon again, coming back to hate WHILE giving him another view, you are so so so stupid man 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Jealousyyyyyy
SEAT Leon Cupra R ST 2019-2020. That's the baby RS6.
Pish

I think you have gone absolutely nuts!! What has happened to Archie Hamilton??? Perhaps it's something you have ate over Christmas. Go to the pharmacy get a tablet, and you will be fine in a couple of days. Looking forward to the next video!!
Yet another one on PCM payment!!
Like his Porsche, X5M etc…
Struggles putting fuel in any car, guys a chump!!
Archie looking for Audi freebie’s 😂
Cheap RS6 ???? It’s not even a cheap RS4 or Skoda Octavia RS 😂
Interesting with the car finance rates going up how people starting to move down the car ladder. Guy near me went from an G80 M3 to a Golf R.
Try the Golf R Estate & I'd try the Audi RSQ3 to the 5 cylinder RS3 Engine but in a usable SUV sounds awesome but thats a nice car the Arteon.
love it
This car needed a V6
Come on please don’t insult us and compare it to an RS6………
I would ❤ buy 🎉
looks like an estate car? 🤷♂
When are we going to see some Racing 🙄🙄🙄
Bought a brand new Tiguan R last year worst reliability I’ve ever had and vw nz no help either…. Stay away lad.
No thanks
Thats a few times youv been on here now hating 🤣🤣 Would love to know what car you have. Must be something mega like a chiron or twin turbo huracan.
@@pb3382 Is the meaning no thanks, hate! Get a life you little loser.🙂
M2 bmw
Go 4 it
You will be bored if it in about 2 months. Great family wagon but you dont have any kids. Stick to the hatchbacks.
This is why we love him……NOT.
Jaffa
Clickbait of London
How do u know? Surely you dont return to know…
Why would you want an Arteon/Golf R Estate and a Range Rover ?
The Range Rover money could be spent on something much more interesting
We heard you the first time… 😂
Voted most dissapointed car of 2023 by Joe Achilles.
Clout
“Are tay on@
Gosh, is this little twonk still going? No wonder he hasn't got any more subs than when I last watched..... in 2018. Same as SOL, Sam, and all the other ones who jumped on the bandwagon yet produced nothing of any relevance whatsoever. Adios.
I have the tiguan r and I love it you should tested one of these to 😊
Does he have some kind of partnership or affiliation with VW now? Or does this video exist just to make an add for obdeleven lol
You should engine swap with a 5 cylinder and straight pipe it.
Nah: He needs to wrap the engine in neon vinyl.
I have the Skoda Superb Estate version of this car. 360Bhp 4 x 4 DSG, adjustable suspension & electric everything. It's a real life sleeper car that's infinitely practical as a family car with a huge boot. Bigger than the Arteon I think. The Arteon may have the better looks though but the Superb as a used buy is much cheaper.
Why don’t these come to the U.S. market
You in a vw that's why I'm here
