Big news coming in Wednesday’s video. I might even get a teaser post on my insta before then 🤔
Make sure that bell icon is on and you’re following my insta @calvinscardiary
Nice
Calvin's Car Diary 😂🤣 mans always in a MASSIVE rush ✅ #ONIT As always thou calv 👍
itsam9ting literally don’t stop. Constantly on it. Not even a joke.
Calvin's Car Diary it’s all for the best thou mate … literally smashing the content and keeping all of us this side of the screen happy 👍 ✅
itsam9ting thanks mate 🙏🏼👊🏼
It's an R-Line. Just like an S-Line, AMG Line etc. nothing crazy here
Literally this 😂. It's just the styling (body kit, interior etc) with lower tier engines
Exactly.
Hence what he says at the start of the video?
UA-cam TV well no shit
Paul All Golfs look the same anyway so whys the point in this additional “styling” 😂 Golf R is boring but at least it’s quick
For car trader you don't seem to be aware of alot of cars 🤔
Who else got caught out with the clickbait title ✋🏻😂
"It's black as well which is a Golf R colour" 😂😂. A little bit of Golf R exclusivity there eh? 😂
Nicely disguised advert Calvin! You’re a wise man!👍
I love the fact you show cars like this on your channel and advise everyday people what a good running car is.
1.4 tsi is the main engine across the VW group. 1.4 ACT 150bhp is found in VW, Audi, Seat, Skoda cars and has an active combustion chamber tech where when you're cruising it turns off 2 cylinders. My mrs has it in her Leon 1.4 FR ST. Its a great engine and you can also get it as a hybrid in the Golf e.
Those TSI engines are so good
140+ bhp still have some fun with that. I rented a Golf a few years back from thrifty wanted to cry when he said its a 1.0. I actually had some fun in that tbh. Power of a 1.6 with less weight and a turbo. Pulled through all the gears very well and had no issues hitting 100+ mph and that was only 116ps/bhp whatever they called it these days.
You know what's sad? One day we might really have a Golf R with a 1.4l engine.
Or a 1-liter 3 pot with a hybrid setup...
I really hope I can own a proper hot-hatch before everything goes to shit with regulations.
No they're be electric by then
@@mikerelvas The speakers will make a 2.0T sound in the cabin.
@@neokgatla The soundaktor in the current Golf R almost replicates a V8 because of how rumbly and bassy it is... Maybe with a 3-cylinder it will replicate a flat-6 lol
Vw are going full electric sadly think they mentioned somewhere their last generation of new engines will be 2025 😭😭
Bless you Calv. Always in a bloody rush to get somewhere. Makes for entertaining viewing each and every time. Love your videos dude #onit
Dj Ed G thank you bro 👊🏼
Good video Calv, I’ve got the mk7.5 r line and I love it! It always gets mixed up with the golf r 😆
Nice to sit down after a busy weekend and enjoy another Video by Calvin! Great content! 🔥🔥
The seats on later Rs are the same as on that R Line Calvin.
Love your reviews, lad, keep up the good work 👍🏼
How do you not know what an R line is bro you sell motors
He s probs got staff doing everything now don't think he has to do anything now he s at that level now
Mk 7 golfs in any spec are a sick car for young people, I had a 1.6 TDI GT (boring I know) a couple years ago when I was 19/20 and it was an unbelievable car for the money. Way quicker than you'd expect, comfortable, easy to drive, loads of kit, and proper nice quality interior, almost on par with my current 320d in terms of material quality but for less than half the price
Another good review, spot on Calvin
Its nice to see you catering for the youngsters. Me being 44 i don’t have trouble insuring cars but when i was younger i couldn’t so went down the route of building XR3i and RS Turbo replicas as the sportier looking cars with an insurable smaller engine didn’t exist. Keep up the good work 👊🏾
What do you mean by "youngsters"? I'm fairly sure most "youngsters" wouldn't be able to afford one in the first place.
@@killafx4726 with finance deals nowadays anything is possible, uni car park had everything from M4's S5's M140i's and all sort that are £20k plus driven by students under 22 years old
Tejpal Singh you hit the nail on the head. In this day and age with the finance deals that are available namely PCP makes buying cars more affordable for all ages
@@scorcha100 It may make it "affordable", but you will never own that car unless you pay the rest of the car's value near the end. Call me strange, but I very much like the thought of the car being 'yours'.
I’m 19 and I’m grateful that you’ve made this video and I can insure it for quite cheap
2strokemad ! That’s exactly what I want to hear 👌
I own a 1.25 fiesta and its such a nice car. 19 and its the perfect car for efficiency and insurance. Do a video on one of those
I felt exactly the same when I first got my mk6 1.4 TSi, it feels just like a normally aspirated 2 litre
Hello Calvin. I don’t know if you have heard about the mk8 golf.
I have been reading that it will use a 1.5 mild hybrid , which will neutralise turbo lag.
It will be good to drive I reckon
The 1.4TSI 150ps ACT is a good unit. I test drove a Golf GT (similar in spec to "R-lines") with the 1.4TSI 150ps and engine felt quite ordinary....... however test drove a Polo BlueGT which is basically a 6c Polo but with a 1.4TSI 150ps rather than the GTI's 1.8TSI 192ps unit. The BlueGT with the 1.4TSI 150ps is fantastic and completely different in feel from it used in the Golf. Any the unit he has in the Golf is the 1.4TSI 150ps (post October 2014) unit which is 250nm in torque. There was a pre October 2014 1.4TSI 140ps unit same engine and almost identical torque figures. VW tweaked just tweaked the two engines ECU wise and got bit more power out of the later post October 2014 units. Fantastic engine that actually drives and males same power and the old late 90's/early 2000's base VW GTI's 1.8Turbo 150ps units of old without the mpg loss.
Decent vid. Would have been very interested a few years ago back in my uni days....but got myself a Cupra 290. Awaiting delivery
Calv you need to drive the SEAT, its lighter than the golf but had the same engine. Very fun car
I have the same car in Atlantic blue metallic. I had the resinator taken out and it sounds great! Might throw on a new induction kit for some more torque. Dont want to go mad on the power. What do you think?
Fammmm the way I needed to see someone make a video on the 1.4 golf you wouldn’t know
Got a leon Sc titanium with the latest 1.4tsi....
Absolutely love it... its no rocket, but pulls well and doesn't cost the earth to run.
Cant fault it..
Would be a great review Calvin 👌🏼
No guys I think it's powerful and economical when it comes to the gas, I like it ❤
It's like comparing an M3 to a 316D
George Austers no it’s like comparing a M3 with a 320d M sport
No it’s comparing a 325d (225 hp) to a M3 which is double the power. Like the golf r and r line
I'm on my second golf TSi mk7..I think their well good for the money..the build quality is too....the RENAULT 5 GT TURBO was only 1.4 TURBO..and a pocket rocket
I had a ride or 2 in 1 back in the day, fucking fast.
Love my mk5 gti 2l turbo but it's burning fuel like crazy for what I use it for. Recently got a new job which I use it everyday as well as home visits for a business I run. So tempted by something like this. Highly doubt its as exciting as a GTI but needs must for now.
yes calvin! will see you on the 27th
alfography see you there 🔥
Oryt Calvin, you should do a video on the Skoda Fabia mk2 VRS with the 1.4TSI engine, they’re great fun had one as my last car the DSG box was amazing and it was great on fuel and I was 19 when I had it n was only £850 for insurance. I had it remapped to 210hp 300nm and it surprised a lot of people.
My company car at the moment is a 1.4 Corsa GSI, so much fun for sub 200 bhp
Drive a Ford Fiesta st line 1.0 Ecoboost, 138 bhp and cheap to insure at 17/18
Editing is superb!
Loved the video!!
Got my R Line at 19... lucky i got the 2L.
I probably wouldnt say this motor is best for younger drivers just because the 16 plates are valued at 13k. Not everyone that age has money like that
Lucky to be part exchanging mine to get the real deal
Come on man it looks nothing like a golf r
Crazy that almost 20 years ago the MK4 Golf GTI came out with 150bhp! Now the bog standard 1.4 Golf has the same power. Doubt that 1.4 has the same tuning potential as the old faithful 20v turbo haha!
Lewis that’s such a good point.
Try do a video an a 1.4 Audi a1 calv, very tuneable and a cheap alternative to an s1 for a fair bit less and they look sporty if you get the s-line version
Luke Harmsworth not every car with a performance variable is comparable to the poverty spec hahahaha
Ellis Gregory they run 140 stock mate or 185 if you get a black edition and on a stage 2 you can get them to 250 so they are very comparable
Got the same engine in a polo bluegt and tuning box, pushing 185bhp and 226lb ft of torque and it’s ideal for me, being 23 it’s fast enough, cheap to insure and cheap to run! Lovely little 1.4 mate 👌🏼
smallbigdumplin what tuning box you got mate?
thomas price I’ve got a tdi-tuning box mate, works perfectly, had no issues at all 👌🏼ACT still works perfect and fuel consumption hasn’t been affected that much either. It’s got so much more pull with it fitted
smallbigdumplin decent mate I was tempted to get one but was told it’s more placebo than anything else, you disagree?
thomas price I’ve often turnt it off and drove standard and then turnt it on and I can tell the difference, it’s more noticeable when you have a full car, pulls stronger deffinetly. It’s one of them things where you get used to the increase so no longer feels any different, until you turn it off. I will get a Ecu flash at some point but the traceless eliment is perfect for me at the moment
smallbigdumplin yeah perfect mate cheers for that
I have a mk5 golf 1.4 gt tsi running 260bhp but hopefully going to get a golf r next though
1.4 active cylinder technology right? so it runs on 2 on the flat and kicks the other 2 in when on a hoon
TSI engine has both a supercharger and a turbocharger, the supercharger works from 0 to 3,500 rpm giving massive bottom end power then the turbo takes over after 3,500 rpm its the best of both worlds, its power everywhere !!! genius they can be pushed to 178 BHP and £30.00 a year road tax, win win
Those are called Twinchargers, but most TSI's are turbo only.
Ive never known a car trader to not know much about many cars😂
Mate, your camera work and commentary is on point, you should get a job on Top Gear
am actually getting one of these "2020" versions. Which is quite a lot of car for the price as you are saying. I was really thinking of second hand golf r: 2017 with 7 or 8k on it but half the price of a brand new one. But with the fuel consumption, no warranties left (turbo problems on erly ones), the high toll on the co2 levels and a pricy insurance. It just didnt felt quite right..
Loving the Robert Miles Vibe on the opening track 1:06 onwards
Them 1.4s go bang pretty well they don't like tuning my mate blew 2 up before upgrading to a bmw 330 😂😂
Click Bait, I'm disappointed you have started to go this route
Bob Pegram it’s an R-Line vehicle not an R
Ni**a gotta eat b
@@Horizon301. The R is 2.0 not 1.4 you idiot
It is basically an R without the power
You never thought of setting of 10 minutes earlier than you do.... maybe then you wouldnt always be "running late"...😂
love the vidz bro WICKEDDDDDDDDD
Interesting vid. Never heard of a 1.4 R Line
It's nice that pal looks amazing
Do a review on a gtc Astra vxr calvin
Arran Brown good shout. I’ll try and buy one and do a video on it 👍
Calvin. What software do you use for video editing plz.
You know what Calvin , yeah. It dont matter if your reviewing a bog standard r line golf. Or an amg line merc. Yeah. Let me tell you something, It's you that that's entertaining , yeah 😉. Sorry I was rushing
There knocking around years bud 😂😂
It'd be good to see a comparison on costs over say 5 years of ownership taking into account tax, fixed amount of miles a year and general service costs... It's not the cost of a golf r that puts me off its the running costs
It's a good car man I am also driving a DSG 1.4I R line comfortline 2015 model ,its powerful 😉
Is it uncomfortable?
Wouldn't dream of modding the 1.4 /1.5 TSI engines 🙈 the 1.4 engines in the Mk6 were good awful for that, good, nippy little things. But no point modding unless you was spending big haha.
I’m 23 and Insure a 2016 GTI for 650-700 quid a year fully comp, if you get some no claims then they are affordable
That's roughly how much I was quoted and I'm also 23
The R-line has good spec and looks good but the price is shocking!
Come to South Africa, these are just as common as the golf R
Got a 2019 polo r line with the 1L 3 cylinder turbo and it’s only 7kw down on power then the 1.4.
Doesn't the eco mode shut down 2 cylinders at low speed? Thus making it a lot more fuel efficient around town
Same as the s line for Audi. Nicer wheels etc. I like these normal car reviews there what most people have
is that one of those go faster badges good for an extra 50 brake
About half the price of a top spec lol
Hi Calvin,I am a old man 64.Try a car like mine a Seat Leon st 1.5 Auto.It's a great car.
same suspension as a golf R ? ( does it handle the same - i know its not got 4motion )
With a tune, this is like a GTI in terms of power.
like the way they went twincharged like GT n TSi kinda like old 'driver' models ..liked the polo Gtis or recent. but now no R32 v5 . some ed30 or pirelli edition was cool ..didnt Ford start all this with ecoboost engine dunno ? hard to keep track ..Isn't there a 5 cylinder about anaw ? were putting a 5 cl in mk5 chassis in USA 2.5 aw .. anyway , yeah cheers man..
Sneaky clickbait calv! 😔 there are various VW R lines. Although yes it's not a bad little engine. Perfect for most people and would suit me just fine 😁
Best 1.4 is Ibiza cupra, Fabia vrs an polo gti, got cupra myself and it will beat most hot hatches lol
yh the size of those things can imagine its pretty quick.
Atique Irfan DSG ?
will park yeah dsg, does the dsg fart sounds crazy
Atique Irfan nice man i would take a dsg too. farts sound sick 👍
This car did not come to the U.S. but VW did make a 1.4 Golf 7R, there is no clickbait in his title
VW is doing what BMW is doing with non-M cars. Putting M badges on them (ex. 235i M). It's not an M2 but it has M performance styling. Same story here. This car is not a "Golf R" performance-wise, but looks-wise they wanted to give it more of an R style appearance
It just looks like a regular golf TSi with Golf R badges and bumpers
buying one of these cars being 21 years old. 4 year NCB and it's £600 for the year.
For a youngster insuring this car the insurance companies will look at the R styling and bump the insurance up on that alone regardless if it's a 1.4.
please feature a 1.4 2011 A1 Sline - Same engine.
Been watching your vids for a while now but pretty much say with every video you are in a massive rush!?! Gets annoying after a while...
What next a video on a VW Golf SE Match....
You want to make videos of normal cars being driven well. Lot of the time it's not about power. If you can drive good you can make any car feel fun for the passengers
fancy an edition 30 1 owner 180 k. quick very high miless
Brought a golf 2013 1.2 tsi live in london paid 2.8k insurance. 1 year later brought a golf 2015 1.4 tsi. 1.2k insurance. Insurance is fucked
Calvin the type of guy who's Always late
I love your videos and have probably watched every video, but for a being car trader there is so much stuff he doesn’t know about cars haha all new VW cars have different specs of all the cars and one of the specs is the R-line range, I have a new Tiguan and it is a R-line spec but that doesn’t mean it’s and Tiguan R it just means it from the R-line spec,
U should maybe do some research of the cars before u take them in or even just drive them,
I would love to be a car trader
People who say it's a clickbait.. how is it a clickbait tho? Golf R line has an R kit but a 1.4 engine. So therefore it's a 1.4 golf r or u can say similar to the golf r..
It's not a Golf R, it's a TSI R-Line Edition!! Entertaining video all the same, thanks
#ONIT yeah?!!👌🏽
Kinda like the ST-Line from Ford and S-Line from Audi.
That R-Line looks nothing like the MK6 R-Line we have in family. Its acually a GT R-Line, not engine is same as this 1.4, 160 hp and not even close to a GTI, but the design om the MK6 R-Line is Way sexier, with nicer side skirts, wider lookin shoulders etc.. Check it HERE !!! ua-cam.com/video/jVMB2b_QApY/v-deo.html. Also make sure to check videos of my MK7 GTI Clubsport, which is freaking Legendary!! 👍
Why don’t you video a bmw 1 series ? 😍
Your missing the fact it’s supercharged too
Looks like I found my first car 🤔
I’m a car trader but have no clue what models are or what the engine is 😂
4 into 2 in eco mode looks like same engine in my polo blue gt
Most likely is mate yep
This dude's literally Ali G.
