    My goodness the Golf 8 GTI is properly gorgeous (not as nice as the 7 GTI but yeah). Yes there's no use waiting for prices to go down so buy your car people. I can also see that you really enjoyed the advanced driving experience🔥
    I want to do an advanced driving course as well but i want to do it through AMG cause Ireally love Mercedes Benz.
    Thanks for this review/lesson of advanced driving. This was so good that i even thought it was a subscribers special🔥

      I had a great time , it’s really fun especially because you are allowed to do things to the car that you wouldn’t normally do on your own car , next il go for the high performance course just to get that track experience.
      This was actually supposed to be the 23 000 subscriber special but I forgot to mention it , the Urban Cruiser launch was the 22K special but I never said it in the review 😅…

    It is not over-priced. Our economy is just not doing well, and salaries are lagging far behind inflation which makes cars seem very expensive now. The cost of GTI ownership in 2013 was around R10k and car prices usually double in a 10-year period.
