^^^ Interesting. As pointed out by volkswizard, no-one seems to have been allowed to test drive one yet, which is very strange. Hopefully this changed yesterday and we get some youtube videos giving us some "real world" driving reviews.
This guy definitely drove it. And Volkswizard didn’t get an invite it seems. There’s an embargo on reviews going live until Friday week.
Thanks for the update. I wonder why VW are being so secretive about test drive reviews?
Ah I suppose it is just all about building hype and anticipation.
Realistically, for many on here including myself who are already intimately familiar with the MK8 or particularly the 8.5, is it going to feel significantly different behind the wheel to those cars? My guess is absolutely not, unless you spec the PP and you're driving it at 9 tenths on the Nurburgring.
Certainly, I wouldn't expect the average Youtuber's 15 minute experience behind the wheel of one to tell me anything I don't already know myself. I'd definitely value Volkswizard's insight though, as at least he is very very familiar with what has gone before and I trust him to give an objective honest appraisal. Just a pity he doesn't seem to get invites to these launches.
