Great film and review and thanx for putting the true prices !!! I'll take a 3 door Golf R in Blue with DSG as it does rain in the UK and Ireland !!! Thanx for the English Subtitles !!!
kraenk12 its not allowed we have to pay massive taxes on that car aswel which makes it exactly the same our cars here cost twice as much so does everyting els
its interesting you indicate a gap between the R and GTI but one channel did a track test (admittedly on different days) and the GTI (may have been with performance pack option fitted) was faster.
Abzug0386 Why bs? Performance pack means the GTi is only slightly down on power and has a 70-80kg weight advantage. Those timed laps are done with a rolling start so the awd advantage is mostly cancelled out...(Particularly if the track doesn't have many slow speed corners.
The GTI isn't only "slightly" down on power. It's 70 hp..... From a GTI PP point of view the R has 6% more weight, but 30% more power. So how in the world should a GTI PP be any faster?
True, but it's only down on torque by 30NM. And that's the real indicator for acceleration... GTI runs out of puff at 5000rpm, but not an issue in most instances.
Nope, torque has nothing to do with acceleration in the first place. Torque + momentary rpm do max. acceleration. A high torque could mean the car has a good acceleration in low revs, but doesn't say anything about the max. acceleration of the car. For instance, the BMW E90 M3 only has 400 Nm, which isn't much more than the GTI PP, R or such cars as the 335d (630 Nm). Still, M3 is much faster cause it can deliver those 400 Nm at much higher revs. Back to the GTI PP vs. R. Let me show you some numbers to prove my point: GTI PP 0 - 200: ~ 24 s R 0 - 200: ~ 19 s 1.5 s coming from the traktion advantage of the R at the start, the rest is just pure power (while knowing that the R weighs ~ 90 kg more).
mocht deze jongen ooit het geld hebben, komt er absoluut een Golf R voor de deur! Heerlijke auto zeg. ik lees overal niets dan goeds. stuurgevoel en allroundheid hebben schijnbaar een grote sprong voorwaarts gemaakt. ook erg knap hoe ze de Golf zoveel anders dan de S3 hebben kunnen laten rijden/sturen. Kudos VW. de A45 valt een beetje weg tussen de andere 2 eerlijk gezegd.
Mercedes obviously has a lot to learn about refinement in a hot hatch. Talk about trying to rip customers off. Here is a real test............park all 3 cars outside and exposed during a hail storm and lets see which car gets the least panel damage. All I know is that my friends Audi S3(previous model) survived without having one single dent when golf sized hails rained down for about 5 mins but the Hyundai i30 parked next to it was totally annihilated, windows smashed and flooded.
Roland een spraakverbod opleggen en Roy voortaan de filmpjes laten maken. Scheelt minimaal 10 vergelijkingen met wilde dieren, de zeehond is je vergeven.
Leuk hoor die opgefokte Golf. Maar mijn Megane RS met een chipkuurtje van €600 heeft ook 310pk. Dan ben je voor 40 mille klaar en heb je gegarandeerd meer lol!
Geen twijfel, aangezien de M135i niet bij de test zat, zou ik direct voor de Golf kiezen. Zeker na Roy's commentaar op capabilty tov de andere 2 en de prijs. En nog de mooiste ook samen met de Audi. (MB foeilelijk, brrrr.....sorry guys)
International viewers, we added English subtitles. Enjoy!
Thank you. Great review.
Thank you. :-)
Thank you ...
▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄█▓▒░ THANKS A LOT ░▒▓█▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄

alias
You Dutch people are cool for putting subtitles for people who doesn't speak your language.
Erg goeie video weer! Roy blijft toch mijn favoriete reviewer. Scherp, to the point en duidelijk. Top!
Well presented and concise review, thanks for adding the subtitles. The review has definitely added new perspective to my decision
Great film and review and thanx for putting the true prices !!!
I'll take a 3 door Golf R in Blue with DSG as it does rain in the UK and Ireland !!!
Thanx for the English Subtitles !!!
AUDI S3 all the way
Thanks. I'll be getting a Golf R. Sure, it's $38k or so here bit the 45 is gonna be $15k more stock. APR stage 1 gets 360+ hp ECU only.
audi for me
Heerlijke video!! Goed bezig AutoWeek ga zo door!
Check my channel for more volkswagen and audi and mercedes. I filmed the Golf R in Red Black and Blue. The Audi in black. The AMG in white and black
Where are the English subtitles please?
a45 amg is best
Bachar Halabi Always the best
Heerlijke review! 3 heerijke hothatches!
Auto's in Nederland zijn ranzig duur. Hoe kan je dit bekostigen met een normaal loon?
Mooi verwoord maat
Great review. Regards from Portugal.
does anyone know name of the song at 6:41?
nice cars,sick price list compare to states...
Waarom wordt de BMW 135im Hatchback nergens mee vergeleken. Volgens mij is dat ook een hete hatch?
Voor die prijzen zijn er wel snellere autos te krijgen volgens mij?
Mooie scherpe analyse Roy!
Alle drie heerlijke auto's. Maar 80 mille voor een A klasse blijft absurd.
How much is the s3 more comfortable than the Golf r?
nice comparision. at first i watched for A45, but now i changed my mind, GOLF R seems cooler
I'm for AMG. It looks better :)
is this an A45 bash video?
Thank you very much.
i didnt know the cars are soo expensive over there. In Poland basic golf R starts at about 35000 eur
Leuke review! Zou zelf ook voor de R gaan omdat die op forza heb
Golf R power 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
I love my Focus RS , veel goedkoper en een stage 1 , 342 pk en 560 nm .
hoe snel 0-100?
Why are these so expensive in the Netherlands? Here in Germany the Cholf R starts at 38.325 Euro.
cause holland fucking sucks and they want to rip uss compleetly off
edin cirkic then why don't you all buy your cars in Germany (or other european countries?)
kraenk12 its not allowed we have to pay massive taxes on that car aswel which makes it exactly the same our cars here cost twice as much so does everyting els
Golf 7 R starts at 29.000 Euro in Andorra
edin cirkic
lol dont worry, here in Curacao the Seat FR starts at NALF 63.000, thats almost 27834.40 Euro, and thats for the base model.
Geen BMW M135? Zou er eigenlijk wel bij moeten zitten.
its interesting you indicate a gap between the R and GTI but one channel did a track test (admittedly on different days) and the GTI (may have been with performance pack option fitted) was faster.
....which is complete bs, if physics actually matter.

waar is de bmw m135i? die past ook goed in dit rijtje!
Die wilden wij er ook graag bij, helaas was hij niet beschikbaar!
Conclusion: Golf delivers more for your money.
Conclusion: Audi Always wins..
ABOUT TIME!!! :D
Audi S3😍
Waarom nemen jullie de Audi S3 en niet de RS3? Dat zou toch een betere concurrent zijn voor de A45 AMG.
There's a whole paragraph of talking but only one line of subtitles in many scenes! Great review though.
AMG for me :)
mocht deze jongen ooit het geld hebben, komt er absoluut een Golf R voor de deur! Heerlijke auto zeg. ik lees overal niets dan goeds. stuurgevoel en allroundheid hebben schijnbaar een grote sprong voorwaarts gemaakt. ook erg knap hoe ze de Golf zoveel anders dan de S3 hebben kunnen laten rijden/sturen.

En heb je hem
Cars in the NLs are around 20% more expensive than in my own Belgium, so don't think all of Europe pays that much. Same with fuel and such.
I guess i just figured out why ppl rather ride bikes in the neds ..
+MrLoose26 Taxes here suck :/
ENGLISH SUBS ! ! !
Done!
AutoWeek Thanks. Very informative
AMG natuurlijk.
A45 AMG all the way!!!
Nice Golf
ondanks de prijs zou ik toch voor de a45 gaan!
1. Golf R ist the best!
2. Audi S3!
3. Mercedes Classe A45 AMG//
Damn Where is The ///M135i
I will take the S3 but change the front grill, cant stand the horizontal lines, change it to rs honeycomb or standard.
A45 is higher level than other two.
Golf seven for me.
Mercedes obviously has a lot to learn about refinement in a hot hatch. Talk about trying to rip customers off. Here is a real test............park all 3 cars outside and exposed during a hail storm and lets see which car gets the least panel damage. All I know is that my friends Audi S3(previous model) survived without having one single dent when golf sized hails rained down for about 5 mins but the Hyundai i30 parked next to it was totally annihilated, windows smashed and flooded.
Have winter tyres on the AMG is a crime!!. Let its Dunlop Sport Maxx as standard and use your Skoda on winter!!!
I want the "R"
maybe next time u shud use the a45 4matic instead of the standard a45 to feel its superiority.
Filemon Jonathan yes and an audi rs3 and not a s3 hahaahahahahaha
Its a shame we don't get this Mercedes Hot Hatch in America...
Doesn't matter, it is just a crap car for its price, better go for the golf r.
Love VW i own a GTI and a Tiguan...
Joaquin Coronado Nice
The Audi looks more like an estate than a hot hatch.
Jammer dat die Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG zo verschrikkelijk duur is...
so they are test two cars that are made by the same company... against 1 merc hmmmmm ......
Roland een spraakverbod opleggen en Roy voortaan de filmpjes laten maken. Scheelt minimaal 10 vergelijkingen met wilde dieren, de zeehond is je vergeven.
78000 euros for an A Class??? WHAT THE FUCK for that price I'd buy a fucking CLS!!!
btw THANKS FOR THE SUBTITLES
Leuk hoor die opgefokte Golf. Maar mijn Megane RS met een chipkuurtje van €600 heeft ook 310pk. Dan ben je voor 40 mille klaar en heb je gegarandeerd meer lol!
Bullshit, gegarandeerd meer lol? ga maar lekker door j
KoosSpeeTerreur
Klopt.. Megane RS is veel meer een stuurmansauto...
Geef mij die S3 maar, wolf in schaapskleren;-)
The volvo v40 should have been in this line up.
yea.... NO
Ok. Who wants now WRX STI which costs 80 000 EURO in NL
Why are these so expensive over there? All three are cheaper in Germany that's for sure. Example: Golf R starting at 38.325 Euro.
And the S3 costs 41000 € in germany
AUDI FOR LIFE
I'm so glad I live in US.. for 50.000euro I can buy here 911 S
The audi rs3 will be comming
Vind de a classe wel de mooiste! Maar de audi mag er ook wel zijn! Een golfje heb ik helemaal niks mee!!
or u can get it for just 2 years used and pay the half .. :S
MrThePrivateer in uk i found a mk5 r for like 4000 pounds..LOL
Geen twijfel, aangezien de M135i niet bij de test zat, zou ik direct voor de Golf kiezen. Zeker na Roy's commentaar op capabilty tov de andere 2 en de prijs. En nog de mooiste ook samen met de Audi.
(MB foeilelijk, brrrr.....sorry guys)
Jong de amg is de beste
"Die A45 klinkt als een zeehond met kinkhoest."
Clearly golf R won, and A class is worst one...
What a fanboy. :D
The Best or nothing
+McMaurin Shut up golf r is the winner
Hello everybody, the a54 amg sounds like a seal with kankhoest
VW Golf
Golf blijft uber Gti te zijn! Knap en zoals t hoort. Snap niet bij AMG, dat je maar in afstelling hebt op t onderstel= knoerthard! Gemiste kans...
Mooiste interieur s3😂😂😂sorry maar dit Interieur ziet er niet uit
Alle 3 belachelijke auto's helemaal als je naar de prijs kijkt.
BASE PRICE MERC: 49.980!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Heerlijke video!! Goed bezig AutoWeek ga zo door!
