If you look very closely you can see there is also some camo around the headlights and on the front valance around the fog lights.

By “very little camouflage” I’d say they mean no heavy panel disguises or funny paint jobs to mask the lines.
Just a few details blanked off to add some mystique before a full launch.

The GOLF signage on the tailgate is hideous tho. That will be getting removed if it makes the final cut !

True story

I quite like the front bumper,
Although I dunno if it’s a optical illusion but they all seem to have a jump in the bonnet

Auto bild also have a you tube video of a lime green mk8 and it's got a different front bumper to the R in that video.

That Auto Bild video looks like someone is getting a bit carried away and creative with photoshop again

What a lovely render. Someone's done a great job there. Shame it's not VW that made it  :grin:

It is nice. At this stage though, bearing in mind the R is unlikely to be launched until some time after the mainstream mk8 Golf models, we’re likely to only see renders of the next generation R for some time to come.
