All I’m saying right now is make sure you’re subscribed with notifications on because I’ve got some big stuff coming up 💥 #ONIT
are you giving it away because i been looking for a 7.5
Calvins Car Diary I absolutely love these Golf R's man they have a lot of protention to em man like when u had a MK7 Golf R man with was 600bhp that you brought from Aruthar man loved that golf r man my favourite car cos of the DSG Gearbox and the DSG Farts man I love em 😍 You Smashed it Calv Keep it up #ONIT
Would you be interested in a decent spec stage 2 7.5 golf R? DCC DYNOAUDIO SPEILBERGS ect.
Could you do a video on a 2015-2017 polo gti would love to hear your opinion mate 👍
I think one of the best all round cars ever made.
Agreed
The GTD is better
@@SuperNovaHeights_ Hahaha next joke
@@glenmurray7699 you never owned a GTD, so you know nothing
@@SuperNovaHeights_ no but I own an R and I know that a gtd doesn’t compete
Main things I love about the 7.5 is the virtual cockpit and headunit. You can retrofit them into the normal 7 but it's not cheap
It’s the perfect car but it’s a big shame that thieves love it so much.
My 7.5 is my dream car. In Race mode with the paddle shifters puts the biggest grin on my face
Honestly the 7.5 is spot on.. The interior and entertainment system is perfect. Currently have a GTD MK7.5 and I would happily upgrade the car for a 7.5 and get it staged.
Love golf Rs my mate has one and they are one of my dream cars
I got a manual lapiz blue 7.5 R, absolutely love it, its the perfect car for me once the stage 1 tune went on
Did you have to upgrade clutch mate?
US version or UK? Love my 6 speed 7.5 but the US interior is all leather, but that shit sucks in hot weather
@@guillenrey830 UK version, I've got the carbon/nappa interior so it's like a cream coloured leather, doesn't really get hot enough here to become a problem
@@mrs140 I got a brand new OEM clutch installed as it was slipping already when I bought it, a year in and its still absolutely fine
I absolutely LOVE my 2018 MK7.5 "R" DSG 3 door which I've owned from New and I've not been swayed by the New MK8 Golf R so it's here to stay.
3 door Golf R's look 💥. Much better than the 4 door car!
They look nice in white... We have a golf R estate in white and it looks ace too 👌🏻
Quality video Calvin. I've got a MK7 low mileage one in Lapiz Blue and love it. Always surprises me how fast it is stock!
Love a golf R one of my favourite vw cars going keep up the good work mate
I was thinking christ not another Golf R video , but actually really enjoyed it , your positivity shines through Calvin , & i laughed at your "rubbish" joke ! :D ..... keep it up mate .
I have an oryx white pearl mk7 Golf R and I absolutely love it. I think the front ends look way better on the 7's, but I like the bumper/diffuser area on the 7.5 more. Great content. New subscriber from across the pond!
When you were speaking about the stats the video loved my left ear 🤣
Love these videos Calvin, editing is top notch as always👍🏻
Golf R content is always worth watching Calvin. As always, another great video. Looking forward to seeing your next videos. The bin wagon comment did make me laugh though 😀😀 You are such a down to earth great guy. 👍
This is all that you need for a daily to be honest. Love me a VW Golf. Looks good in the white
THE LOAD OF RUBBISH JOKE WAS GOLD DONT STOP THEM LOL 😂
I thought it was a load of rubbish........
7.5 > 8
My left ear enjoyed this!
Much love from south africa 🇿🇦
Love that car specially the Mk 7.5 they are just perfect for standard car..
For the money you can't get much better, if only they sounded better. Exactly why my R is going for a pfl RS3
That Golf has DSG which was a factory option.
“What a load of rubbish”, thats my kind of humour 😂😂😂😂
Got to love an R
Im that hungover the rubbish joke went straight over my head 🤣
You're absolute legend my G
Nice one Calv. Your content is original and I enjoy watching. Keep it up!
Love the video calv, next time can you make the sound mono when you're in the car. It's only picking up your voice in one ear of the headphones because its stereo. It was completely fine when you started driving though. Thank you and this was a great video!
I rekon a better measure of a cars response is to time the 20-70 from a rolling start rather than full bore standing start.
Mk6 all day for me 🚗🔥 do like that 7.5 in white tho 👍 nice vid mate
Hi Calvin for the second video running there is an issue with the mic you attach to your t-shirt as it doesn't work all the time (no audio in right ear), this video was around 4.30 to 8.40. It is a shame as I really enjoy your videos (apart from the bad jokes), many thanks.
It happens to me to. It’s not him it’s our phones cos it doesn’t do that on my 2nd phone. Checked this exact video. It’s our phones not him
@@ajayxo6712 Thanks Ajay for the info as I watch it on my laptop and it has always been okay until a couple of weeks ago. Cheers
Nice video you covered everything l hope you get a TV deal in the future just like wheeler dealer you deserve it bro 👍🏾👏🏾🥂
I have never liked Euro cars even tho I’m from the UK. My mates rate them but I’ve always loved fords and JDM classics. In 2021 I bought a B8 VW Passat out of necessity for needing a quality family car. FUCK ME I am blown away by the VW experience! I am constantly watching VW content on RUclips which is something I have dissmissed incredibly quickly in the past. But now I’m trying to weigh up the pro’s and con’s of getting a Golf R over a Golf GTI 🤷♂️. 3 months ago I was lusting over JDM STI’s! Now I am consuming Volkswagen content like smarties. Love the channel Calvin and in the past I would have scrolled past your German car content but this is a great insight into the 7.5R. Peace and love baby.
Calvin you are to nice to be a used car sales man .
The MK7R is one of the best all rounders just does everything well can be daily drive or drop the kids off to school then go for a blast only problem is people over mod these cars 500bhp is the limit for piston rings to crack Turbo Technics V4 0r V5 turbo is nuts so quick for little 2 litre engine just know that engine is strong but like any car engine can go bang at any time when crazy Torque
Awsome video, can't beat a 7R in lapiz blue. The perfect all.rounder
Absolutely love these golf r’s , only issue is that toe rags will break into your house to steal the keys and the car putting your family’s lives at risk, such a awesome car that gets compromised for your family’s safety
Yeah if you live in a complete shit hole
@@xlewis1209x what a moronic comment, do thieves not travel?! I live in a nice rural village and there has been plenty of performance cars stolen. The criminals are always from cities near by.
Yeah if you live in a shit hole.
Definitely getting one after watching this
Was all lined up to getting a 435d but these golfs do look more fun and spirited , what’s your views !?
Make a video on everything mate, helps you and helps sell the motors to viewers 👍
I’ve got a mk7 wasn’t willing to pay the extra picked mine up from auction 11k 71k 2015 mikes however I did put the 7.5 vertical cockpit in manège to find on eBay £400
Absolutely love your videos 😃 keep up the good work Calvin 👍👍👍
I have the 7.5 r estate, best car purchase I've made. Couldn't bring myself to get a mk 8 though. I find the estate look nicer overall imo
Surely it’s been tuned if it does 20 - 70 in the same time as a 415bhp Audi TT 🤷♂️
Old hat now mate, mark 8 is out now! Time to upgrade! Only Joking, great car ,good luck 👍🏻
Calvin, please get a Mk3 Focus RS on the channel. Trust me you will be amazed
one of these thrashed my mates leon turbo stage 1 and it looked stock !
Am I the only one who thinks the audio on this video has gone weird from 4:40 ish?
Perfect way to describe Golf R's, a motorised version of a tikka masala or tomato soup!! 😂 Brilliant 👍🏻
I’m in the market for a 7.5 R right now, so any general advice or ownership thoughts from MK7 / 7.5 R owners would be greatly appreciated. Thanks 🙌
Mk7 R looks so much better from the outside imo, love the way they rear bumper flairs out at the bottom, front vents look better too and side skirts, mk7.5 looks too business class, where as the mk7 looks more boy racer and sporty
Another top upload 👍😎
I was stuck between the choice of one of these and an M140i and I picked the Beemer as I just found it more entertaining and sounded better. The golfs are awesome and quicker 99.9 percent of the time but I thought it was a little dull to drive and also more money to run/buy and insure (at least it was for me anyway) but I certainly wouldn't be disappointed with the golf.
Can't really go wrong with either
I knew it the fact that you were from the UK the moment you said its bloody hot when its only 20 degrees 😂
I love my Golf R 7.5
VW group have used that same steering with glossy bits at bottom on lots of cars even the polo match edition
It comes back manual on HPI but is clearly a DSG??? Mines does the same, only noticed 6 months after buying it....?
Hey Calvin, the seats... is leather now not the holygrail in car land? Do they leatherise the interior on these too?
You can spec these with leather seats yeah
Personally i specced mine with the cloth/alcantara seats as I find them to hold you a lot better in cornering
Patiently waiting on that E63 video 👀
i think an R is not worth it over a GTI tbh if you are not concerned with topspeed.
for daily use if you want a cool fast hothatch, the GTI is perfect and gives you over 90% of what the R gives for a good chunk less money.
Do a vid on launch control
i died when you said good as a chicken tikka masala. 😂😂 calvin you funny guy. Love your videos btw.
Calvin you should do a trip to urban and do a video on it with Lenny 👍
You just needed the bus from when you film outside VRS to drive past to complete the set of random things
MK8 R is my dream car. Waiting for the day when I can afford one. 😭
REALLY REALLY WANT A MK8 R. I've got a GLA AMG but think these R's would be much more fun ??
Why does my right ear feel left out ?? 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️😂
I love my mk7.5 so much. I’ve got a lapiz blue DSG 18 plate. I bought it for 23.2k in Jan 2021 25k miles on it and in great condition… Today, webuyanycar are offering me 25.5k. Even 2.3k profit having had the car for 6 months cannot make me sell this car… it is like you say, the tikka masala of all performance cars. 👌
I was so close to buying one in December 😭, wish I did now cuz they have gone up like you said.
Any theft related issues mate? Really want one but its that issue just holding me back
@@gaurav23186 really comes down to your area. If you leave it parked on the street I wouldn’t get one.
Dad jokes calv. Come on haha. Wicked feature as usual 👍
I absolutely love my Golf R !
you do make me smile
Love your videos, as a new subscriber. Very honest, and you've got a great fluency with your words that puts many presenters to shame. I own the original pop and bang hot hatchback, an Alfasud Ti nutter bastard, and it rinsed a Mk7.5 GTi over 10 miles. The look on the guy's face was a picture. Half the weight, half the power makes it an equal fight, except for the smell of burning oil at 106mph 😂
How come you didn’t do a 0-69 standing draggy time. Would of been interesting standing 0-60 time Calv
Another good one 👍❤
4 minutes in checkout my cockpit.... 😂 😂😂. U r so funny Calvin 🤣
Is it worth getting a stage 1 on my 7.5 or is it not worth the risk n hassle ??
They have shot up in price
Is it worth buying a 310 or 300bhp?
Make a video on the MK4 anniversary you have listed!
Calv fact check - Mark 7.5 began on 17 reg ❤️
Nice 1 Calv
Calvin what would you pay for a 2019 Audi S3 Ara blue 19.5k owned from new
Score
Deal
Thanks for this vid
The rear lights are completely different to the mk7 ones
This is FIRE!
Wana px with my dads d4d 57 reg Yaris. You’ll have to put money on top tho bro
Im with you on your opinion on helecopters bud 😂
Great cars, even better with a simple stage 1.
Hey Calvin what app can I use to check the cars spec list and optional extras its had
I think you need to drive a mini F56 JCW that is the ultimate pocket rocket !
Nope my focus rs mk2 is the ultimate pocket rocket leaves golf r for dead
Has anyone else noticed the bits of the video without any audio
Manual or dsg Calvin?
What is the standard infotainment system like in the mk7.5 ? Any good ?
I’m looking to buy one I’m selling my 2016 focus at which I’ve had for 5 years, how much you looking to sell the R mate ?
Wouldn’t buy one yet mate, they have gone up 2/3k wait tell December/January
@@seifyboy2832 was thinking the same thing, dunno why they gone up so much
@@prometheustv2084 think lockdown being over people have a lot more money to spent now, plus no one wants these new cars ugly and so overpriced.
@@seifyboy2832 i wait till December then, I want ideally a 7.5 r in white with black alloys pan roof etc got about 22k to spend
how can i pm you Calvin regarding selling my Golf R ?
SHORT ANSWER IS YES.
Sod getting in a chopper I'd have Hart attack 🤣
Great cars bt also very high risk to own
For theft?
@@FredericFreedom yea
