Yeah. That was the first I noticed too. Terrible steering circle. I had to learn in swinging out more just so as not to scrape my rear wheels on a kerb. That happened a few times. I am puzzled as to why it is built like that. Other than that, I actually prefer the MK 7.5 over the MK 8. I got an APR stage one and a DSG tune to follow. It already woke up my car to 375 hp 500nm. I have an Invidia Q300 Cutback system. Sounds awesome. It is designed to work with the adjustable oem exhaust flaps.
Sound isn't through the sound system. There's a sound actuator fitted to the bottom of the windscreen (in the engine bay area) that vibrates the windscreen.
U be up for a new waterpump soon,new thermostat,software upgrade for the gearbox which will end up with a brandnew gearbox install as the current software overworks the dsg so they told me.....
Pity you guys don't have the Cupra in Aus... same motor as the R just looks a lot less boring and more sporty. I had the choice of the R wagon and went for the Cupra ST because in my opinion it looks better.
I was super confused as to why this popped up on my subs feed lol. Can't believe it's been 6 years. Time flies.
Time goes way to fast.
Great to hear from you again. What a nice ride.
Thanks for the support!
Like your review and truly love my R 7,5 !
Great to hear!

The turning circle is bad on the mk7 Golf R because it is AWD. You don't have that problem on the regular(FWD) mk7 Golf or GTI.
I visit and comment at your channel in 2012 when you reviewing thermaltake theron mouse, nice to hear your voice after 9 years;)
Thanks bro
Welcome back!
Glad to see you!
welcome back man. Make more vids!
I LOVE my Golf R !
Same :)
I got exactly the same. Indium Grey and same rims. ❤
Cool review 👌🏼
Really good video and well presented. 👍
Dang, seven yrs...
Great review, although was waiting for better closeups of the radio, steering wheel, seats / seat adjustments, and engine bay.
I will try to incorporate next time.
u can control the gear fully if u want by shift u dsg to the left. i found out by mistake on my golf r 2019
New video! Awesome! Are these avail in the States?
Damn. You made 1 video in 9 years
Time goes quick

Good review as im looking at getting one
It’s a great car
I will never sell my mk 7.5 3 door. Same colour but pan roof. 28k on the clock. A true keeper and I’m 50.
At first I was like who’s this? Then I heard the voice 😂😂
;)
The Golf 8 R looks like a Golf R-line
It’s a bit understated
U be up for a new waterpump soon,new thermostat,software upgrade for the gearbox which will end up with a brandnew gearbox install as the current software overworks the dsg so they told me.....
Not sure with the newer models, 5 year warranties and servicing in aus
I want 🥺
Il stick to my 2020 vw stuffed up a few things on the 2021/22 r not impressed with it.

Formentor VZx - next car - they arrived a few months ago.
@@productfeedback so Seat is now in Australia?
Is that a Rolex Daytona on your wrist?
Hugo Boss something, it looks very similar to the Rolex
Yeah, as if I could afford one! 😂😂
One day!
