Clubsport is actually a 45th Anniversary model, no extra performance to a standard Clubsport, but worth saying still.
Quite unique for both the 7. 5 R and the CS45 to have Cup 2's on as standard, they usually ship with Continentals or Bridgestones. Really cool to see this line up though.

I liked it when you asked each driver to tell the stats. It was much engaging and I actually remembered the stats throughout the race and after that as well. Now I can't seem to grasp them or maybe I don't feel interested in how you say the stats

I'm so miffed with VW, I could scream! They somewhat fix the tech; remove the stick; limit the Clubsport to certain countries, and now, they're on the verge of collapse. The management needs a shuffle. By the way, great video Matt!

Mk7 R still the best golf, also I drive mk7 2. 0 tdi,
In my opinion its mk5 R32 and mk7 R best golfs ever, and the fact that in golf 8 you dont even get hood gas piston holder is ridiculous

Glad someone has finally acknowledged the fun the mk8 clubsport is to drive. It’s massive overlooked and actually much more capable than most other hot hatches out there imo.

I will forever say the 7R / 7. 5R is VW's greatest Golf. The way they got the interior exterior perfect is just crazy. a proper collector's item (along with the 7 ClubSport.

I thought my Tesla M3P with 630hp at max discharge was slow. Can't believe these hothatch only has 300hp with slow turbocharged response and weight isn't so much different.

Pheeeeeeeeewww the Golf GTI got the Horsepower and Torque it deserved. I bet the new Mark 8 GTI Clubsport will give the new Mark 8 R a run for its engine!

My experience with the EA488 engine in Audis and VW's is that it takes many miles/km's to free up fully. perhaps the 8. 5 needs more distance under it's belt.

That is a 7. 5 R isn't it I had one from new and I had to get rid of it after a few years as people kept trying to break into my house to steal the keys. I miss it.

Man, I didn't realize how quick the Clubsport is! I sure wish VW sold that in the States! I also didn't realize it had a bigger snail under the hood.

I really don’t like the sounds of the cracks these days. Give me a subtle and deep sounding 6 cyl without those artificial bangs instead
