I think normal might be stretching it a bit.
I don’t watch this guy’s vids but from the little I’ve seen I think he spends far too much time in badly lit rooms clutching Golf R literature.

Andrew does get a mention, although his face isn't shown. Maybe he's not kool inuff for da Carwow kidz

I watched that earlier too.

Not really sure what it shows you? Maybe that it only takes a little tiny mistake and your 20 grand of superiority is pointless maybe

lol! This guy’s videos keep appearing in my YouTube suggested feed. And yes, that’s my impression of him too! Sadly another one of these wannabe YouTubers without the content/talent/ability to match.

This is one of the best reviews I’ve seen yet. JA is an unashamed BMW fan boy so it’s refreshing to see him try something outside of his comfort zone. I think his critique of the interior gremlins is the best summation I’ve seen of it yet. Harsh but fair criticism from someone who’s lived with it for a week or so and has a lot of experience with better thought out interiors.

He did love the car overall though.

I think what he said about the R is probably equally true about the gti and the clubby.... They drive really well but the infotainment and steering wheel buttons are definitely not great. I'd probably say the driving experience overcomes those issues but why does it have to overcome them? Imagine what it could have been, that's the super annoying thing more than anything specific.

M135i vs Mk8 R:

Fairly well balanced review I thought.

I keep saying it, the performance Mk8's are very very well driving cars but definitely let down by software gremlins and poor user interface.

But the driving experience itself is really so very good that maybe you can get over the other problems? But can you dream of what an alternate world looks like.... where the problems are gone and you have simply a "normal" interface with all of the combined with those driving dynamics..... and its not like VW can't have been aware of this.
