Not Golf R, I know, but should give us an idea of what to expect:

Turn up the volume - the exhaust note from the little 4-pot is surprisingly good!
:evil:

Yeah I read this at lunchtime. They say the Scirocco R keeps pace with the Focus through the twistys, but has a more rounded and luxurious feel, would be more appealing to own and in their opinion is the better all-round car. Bodes well for the Golf R.

just watched this, agrees it bodes well for the Golf R, especially as it is more practical, has 4wd and is even faster. cost will be a factor, but as Steve says, the Golf does feel expensive. can't help thinking though that the Golf GTI does 90% of what the Golf R does, but for much much less money. plus the GTI has more character with the red stitching, tartan seats and the GTI badge. All subjective, but then again petrolheads will buy with their hearts not with their heads!

They totally big up the DSG box as well.

The little video review - and the actual magazine review both just saw what I was expecting to be honest!
As good to drive as the RS - if not better, but much more classy inside!
It is a Ford after all!
Fingers crossed the Golf is the same and doesn't lose the fun factor!

Review in Top Gear Magazine by Tom Ford not so good.
Say it's all good, but VW have not gone far enough and should have made it more raucous, more attitude etc. I think they've kinda missed the point of the VW R cars - they've always been subtle and more GT than track day ready hot hatch.
Hey ho - each to their own.
