I wonder what sort of bowel movement would actually be caused by Sebastien Ogier, a new Golf R and a deserted racetrack.
Good fun I'd guess.

I thought from the early photos that the R looked great. The video has made me realise it looks even better than I first thought. If I won the lottery I'd buy one immediately as my daily car. However I don't play the lottery so I'll have to stick with my ancient Mk5.

At least they can do it...can't wait to see how VW UK advertise a performance car when UK advertising rules state that you can't "promote speed,handling or images which may glorify innapropriate driving".

Appeals to my like of the discreet.

Why they've chosen to cut to a super-slow-mo shot of the front wheels spinning is beyond me though. Guess they still haven't got Haldex to work effectively yet.

Oooh. I like the 2nd set of wheels.

^^^ Me too. They're 19" Pretorias. You'd get a set for just shy of £3k I reckon. :laugh:

Now I've seen it more I like it and love the 4 exhausts, in my eyes it's just the front that lets it down looks wise.
