I remember watching this video back in 2016/2017. Oh man, how bad I wanted this car!
Well, a few years later, it's finally time to buy it! :)

What a car! Just bought GTI Clubsport a week ago, but i have to say, this would have been enough lol ;) Wonderful engine sound in these 4 Cylinders too! :)

[@rabbischlomo2307]

3DFX It must be amazing.I bought the polo gti with 192bhp and 320nm torque thats just 30 less torque than the golf.Once i get older i want the clubsport or the R as i am only 18 at present and the polo is a good first car.

Nice car and nice video :)).

[@djfurione]

Got mine 4 months ago, did 9000 km. Best car I had. It's a perfect, everyday, inconspicuous car. I don't mind even like 800 km trips ,(1600 both ways in a weekend.) For me it is a perfect balance between practicality and performance. BTW I would choose R, if it would not look that much worse that a GTI :D

[@CarReviewsEU]

Really great car.
