Not quite Carwow!  :grin:

They need to re-do the one from last year with the CCS and GTI Performance with the TCR and stick a DSG R in for comparison. CSS might be last though  :shocked:

Much is not fact its subjectivity but still a good watch :)

Agree it's a good watch, and much of it is subjective. I'm being shallow but i'd have Lapiz blue over any of the TCR colours, exclusive or not :cool:

A shame they didn’t do the run without the cars in Launch Mode, might have tightened the gap a little and more likely representative of real world conditions where your average owner won’t be using LC at every opportunity.



The Andrew Chapple vid was quite good. I met him a few times many years ago and he’s an enthusiast foremost and dealer second. I think having the car to sell was just an excuse for him to do a vid as opposed to an out and out advert. His TCR vs CS vid probably hindered him selling his CS for example!
