A great Video and well done for posting ... No doubt, the clubsport S is way quicker than the paddle shift Golf R  :whistle:

A bit off the topic but might generate a few more comments - a comparison of Golf R and Seat Leon Cupra on Fifth Gear at Cadwell Park in the DRY only shows the Cupra coming out on top!!
Mk6 GTI Carbon Grey, 2010 Bluetooth and voice fitted, a few VCDS mods still a comfortable family car. Red Scirocco 2011 twin charger stage 1 - enjoyable drive now gone.  White 2016 Polo GTI (roller skate on steroids) replaced with an Indium Grey 2019 7.5 GTI PP.

Nice to get a comparison like this, I went for the R over the GTI for the 4 Motion, if I was in a dryer climate  the  Clubsport would have been on my drive!
Agree with the tyre comments, have them all on an equal footing, is still fancy the CSS to nail it.

It definitely would be more interesting to see the comparison done again with the same tyres on the Golf R and CSS.  The gap may be a little closer than it was on the video.  Also if the Golf R had the rear seats removed etc, so the cars were like for like it would make for an even more interesting comparison.  The Golf R is carrying around a lot more weight than the CSS and it's wheels are shod in inferior tyres.

Had a quick look in CAR mag assume it is the same article.  The red CS 3 door with Brescias I thought looks absolutely stunning..

does anyone know if it really has closed for ordering ?  My local dealer was going to give me a heads up before all slots have gone but don't know if they have cut ordering short now.. am still tempted.

Everyone is now realising just as orders close that the CS is a cracker lol
