That's the same video I posted to the forum on 27th November!

There doesn't seem to be anything new for now. What we really need is a proper road test.

GTi CS vs Golf R vs Focus RS vs AMG45 vs RS3 ..... or any combination of the above on UK roads, hopefully it won't be too far away?

Sorry, I didn't see that anyone else had posted it.

It was some time ago, I was more on making the point that nothing new has come up about the cars since!  :smiley:

Think we may get some more news at Geneva show end of month.

Surprised its been delayed so much when facelift / refresh should be out mid year.

I know we have discussed this before based on previous available info. However, the VW configurator in Germany showing the clubsport only offers the DSG option, at the moment?

Yep, and still no release date for them for a manual version.

And the delivery build weeks keep changing a lot for ones that have ordered, plus ETKA lists Edition 40 and Clubsport decals in Grey, meaning they think more colours will come.

Its an odd set up all together.

EDIT - Now been launched in Austria today, still no Manual option and they don't get the buckets or Xenons as standard, so our spec "may" not be what we think, at least regarding the buckets.

Judging by the Facebook page, the Germans just got the ability to spec a manual gearbox.
2017 GTi Clubsport arrived June 2017
2007 Shadow Blue GTi, sold on after 10 years ownership
