Can CarWow push for an official statement from VW on why the right hand drive MK8 is so much slower than the left hand drive Seems like they are over-stating the performance figures. reminds me of some other figures that VW got wrong not so long ago. Can't believe that fuel is the only reason.

I think this thing of having patent companies is killing these competition, imagine how far Audi would be if it wasnt for the fact thst it cant be faster than Lambos even VWs they have to be slower than Audis.
They can share technology yes, but the performance should be a free ri

The mk8 golf r with blue side mirrors is the 20 year anniversary, it has 333bhp the standerd mk8 has 320 but it isnt the performance, mybe the performance would do abit better as it has the nurburgring mode, im surprised these car journalists dont know the difference!

Mk8 w/ Blue rims. 20yr edition. 333hp. With standard overboost probably peaks at 345-350hp. But that mk5. even manual, still closer to 300 than 450hp (or engine/turbo is faulty. Star of the show is definatly Stefan: )

The Mk. 6 aka the Golf with apricot-colour upholstery is a monster rabbit with Porsche DNA, I love how it dusts the rest with a pride roar! Rothe motorsport has done a good job, they should make more Golfs this fast.

That mkv was not making 450hp, its got the same hp and slightly less torque then the 6, has the same transmission, and both cars nearly weight the same, that car was struggling with something.

It would be very interresting to have a dyno test of 1 car with different type of fuel like talked with the German engineer at the end to see the differences between 95, 98 and 102 fuels.

Matt is so skinny and almost weightless. It’s literally like adding horsepower to whatever car he sits in.
That’s what we thought until after the truth was traveled.

People who buy this types of cars, sometimes I wonder where they work, because I've been a doctor for more than 8 years and I have still not gotten my dream car.

the golf 8Rs are the exact same, onoy difference is that exhaust makes the turbo more efficient and breathes better so it spools better hence its slightly quicker

Weird how Mat didn't notice anything wrong with the MK6 given that it looks like the Base TSI model. Therefore he should rerun this race with all normal Golf R's

using lower octane fuel than the one the engine is tuned for will result in lower output, but there won't be much if any change if you use higher octane.

But obviously you know you’re in a 20 year limited edition running 333bhp. Not sure why you’re saying they are both the same as they are clearly not!

The one time you dont pan the engine bay whilst talking about the spec is the one time the engines are wrong How ironic.
If you say so.
