Just watched that.
A bit too much collagen going on there methinks. But enough about the car...

As said, some good ideas around the graphics but I think it’s been toned down deliberately so the Ed45 has somewhere to stamp its mark. Then maybe a light facelift in a few years will see the Clubsport graphics changed. I actually don’t dislike the Clubby side graphics as is but there’s room for improvement. And certainly on a white car I’d agree that a black roof would be nice. I liked the black roof on my Ed40 and TCR, chavvy or not.
Despite having rubbish hand/eye coordination I still prefer a manual box too. Yes the DSG can be faster but generally it’s slow witted in give and take driving, and there isn’t a setting to suit my driving style which would sit between Normal/Comfort and Sport. I really can’t be arsed with the paddles. I appreciate I’m in the minority.
Another good vid by hair-in-a-bun man here showing off a fully loaded R.
I think he likes it.
