Which is the hot-hatchback champion of champions? We've long loved the Volkswagen Golf R - a five-star car by our reckoning - but is it a match for the vastly more powerful and, to be fair, vastly more expensive, Mercedes-AMG A45?
Our testers pitch the two head-to-head, to see which is faster and, crucially, which is better to drive and own. Join us at our test track for the most exciting, and entertaining, hot hatch test of the year.
Which would your rather have? Comment below...

The RS has always been brash
The 'chav-mobile' here is the AMG, which suffers from a hard ride, a claustrophobic cabin, poor cabin quality and ambiance, poor packaging (especially when compared with the original A class), ugly as sin looks. And all against the typical Mercedes that delivers a comfortable ride, relaxing drive, spacious and elegant cabin etc.
The A class (and not only the AMG A45) is a disgrace to the Mercedes marque.

For a professional father of two, what more could you want?
