  • Want the ultimate hot hatch? Volkswagen's rejuvenated Golf R could well be it. This can't claim to be the fastest car of its kind but it's the most complete, most rewarding and most dynamic shopping rocket yet made. Depending on your mood, it can reach 168mph on the racetrack or register better than 35mpg on the school run. Your everyday supercar is right here.

    This is by far and I mean….by far…the best and most inclusive review of a Golf R on UA-cam. Very well done and I thank you for putting the effort into covering the car in as much depth as you have done here!!

    I have watched a lot of channels about this car and you are the most thorough. I mean you covered every nook and cranny about this car.
    Thank You!

    What a fantastic review - reminiscent of 90s-era Top Gear, before the show went Clarkson mad. Measured in delivery and comprehensive in scope - I feel much better informed about what to expect from the R now. Thank you for the excellent upload!

    Pretty sure the focus RS did NOT have a similar system. It actually overdrove the rears to induce infinite drifts. But you can imagine what happens if rears are overspun and the center clutch pack tightens not up to drift. It overheats.

      Correct and the small differential was plagued with overheating when pushed at a track.

    That engine can be tuned, I’m more interested in A) how that all
    Wheel drive system functions B) drift mode and C) “special”
    I also like the blue for R color

    I got my new one last week and it is very very capable but it absolute does not do 35mpg on the school run, more like 25mpg

    Showing older model pictures, showing the Mk7 not mk8?
    Tried to watch this video more than once. But it's just so boring.

  • @markrhoden68

    Nice and accomplished as this car maybe with everything that everyone would want (performance pack) the price sadly goes well above that crucial £40,000 tax threshold that makes this vehicle very expensive.
    Personally I've just ordered a m135i with a few added options that appeal to myself it comes in at just short of £40,000 ok its not as track focused as the Golf r is but as I mentioned above unless you're willing to pay for the extras and long term costs then this car although very appealing soon become a little less appealing once you add all the costs together

    A greatly detailed review indeed, but, is it just me, or is this guy bordering on "Little Britain", almost a spoof review with the very suspect walk-in or body turn for each segment? "Suits you Sir" :-) Asking for a friend

      Because Audi S3 had less power, is slower and does not get the R Performance Torque Vectoring Rear Diff that's in the Golf R, that will only be fitted to the new £60k plus Audi RS3 😀.
