      It's a shame he kept the blue stripe in front, but yeah looks great. In my country (Belgium) if you tick the option for the black mirrors you lose the blue accent (which in my opinion looks better). Seems like it might be different in UK.

      Stock brakes are quite decent. If you don't use it for track use it's perfectly fine keeping them stock even when Stage 1 tuned. For track use or 500 - 600BHP+ i'd upgrade them though.

    @dougmaverick3287 Рік тому

    Luke and everyone here, do any of you gents across the pond miss the opportunity to buy the Mk8 Golf R with a proper manual transmission?
    I'm asking because I recently test drove mark 7.5 Golf R's back to back the same day, in both manual and DSG transmissions.
    I went in really wanting to like the DSG, but came away not feeling it at all, and liking the more driver focused, more involving and engaging manual transmission.
    I know to each his own, but it must really suck not been able to at least have the option of a manual GolfR everywhere, except North America.
    Shame.

    • @DanielDaniel1
      @DanielDaniel1 Рік тому +1

      VW manuals just aren’t that great, especially compared to the dsg. I’ve driven both mk 7.5 manual and auto and the auto is by far and away the better choice. Not that I don’t like driving a manual but knowing how good the auto is makes me confident that nobody is missing out. Also, the auto will be covered by warranty while the manual will not.
