start sound was a bit iffy

But thereafter it was all good production values drone super slow mo' and all that. I think Sutcliffe would have said the same.

Comparisons needed.

First reviews are always favourable especially when the car is that exciting. I suppose the real test will be comparisons with all rivals even if some of them are front wheel drive (type R) or much more expensive and not manual (A45/RS3),but a manual Golf R is what this car should ultimately beat.
