There is a bit of a write up in the current VW Driver mag too.
I was just about to post up the same thing!
Mine arrived the other day and it was an interesting read but as they say, the proof of the pudding is in the eating.
It'll be an interesting car for sure, Leon Cupra dynamics in a Golf 'special edition' package - what's not to like?!!! (aside from the funny angled bumper add ons that look a bit like one of those ugly fish at the front end).
The power of an R with the character of the GTI (hopefully therefore minus some of the narcissitic owners that reside in a certain place). The only downside will be traction off the line, and possibly the lack of back doors if you really need a four door - but at the end of the day a ClubSport should be true to the original ethos and be minimum weight and therefore a 3 door.
