Indeed the micro fibre steering wheel is exclusive to the Clubsport!
Autogefühl is it optional on other golf gti models?
Thanks for this long detailed review, i just bought one. Cheers
This is definitely the best looking Golf, possibly the only one that you could say stands out from the crowd.
It does actually look like a HOT hatch. I like the seats and steering wheel too, the best Golf interior by far. For the price I would still take a Focus RS but its good to see VAG finally injecting a bit of spice into their volume cars which are always competent but often dull.
sure is !
soundseeker63 Just got mine delivered! Waited about 2.5 months, most people get to wait 5 months they say.. its crazy sought after! Got it in Carbon Steel Grey wth Black roof & DSG, DCC, Sunroof, Keyless Acess and a few other options! :)
***** The S model whichs only 20 hp more beats BMW, Audi, Mercedes in its class. Theres basically nothing faster on Nurnbergring. Conclusion: I wont give it to refugees... So suck it Jealous-Bellys, & have a sweet weekend! ;)

Generally when one has just got a new car and is very pleased with it, one is too busy enjoying driving it to bother wasting time commenting on youtube reviews of said car and bragging to strangers online..... just saying. :-D

Autogefühl model year?
Autogefühl Ok Thomas, du hast den Test bestanden. Ich glaube dir, dass es eure aufrichtige Intention ist, jedes Auto und jede Marke objektiv und fair zu behandeln.
Als Autofan hat man ja seine Lieblinge und es tut weh, wenn man das Gefühl hat, dass sie nicht fair bewertet werden. Wobei man für berechtigte Kritik immer offen bleiben sollte. Frohe Weihnachten, mein Freund.
The Clubsport S Golf GTI is basically prepared for track, it has almost no interior , no AC, everything that is not necessary stripped off plus track tires.
Is that fair when comparing it on the track to "production" hot hatches that have non-track tires and all the comfort utilities and the extra weight that comes with them?
Autogefühl r
My favourite Golf. Thanks for the video, and merry christmas!
+Jackorias 👍
Great review Thomas. All I want for Christmas is a Golf 2 litre GTi petrol, 265PS. I can dream.... :)
Andrew K, NI UK You can come to me & try it with DSG & DCC ;) Also, dont forget its 290 on overboost.. And if you get extra cash to burn, if you swap out the Turbocharger to TTE470, you get.. (You may have guessed it) 470 insane Horsepowers... & Belive it or not APR's Enginners are developing a 522 Horsepower System for this engine... its still not done yet, as practise makes Perfect... As we all know! ;)
Thanks for the offer but I'm an "armchair" reviewer of car reviews. More cost effective, though not as exciting :)
Thanks for the review Thomas. Inevitably, when you review the new facelift golf R, I swear I'll be one of the first to watch it!
+TheMasterNinjaRyu sure :)
I just got the CS in manual. Feels much more alive than the heavier and imo blunt R.
Agree , i also have a TT AWD and it feels heavy , the CS is much lively through corners .
Man, a GTI Clubsport Autobahn Construction Site Special ! LOL! But, great review anyway.! Have a Merry Christmas Thomas + crew!
merry xmas! Thats autobahn in Germany:)
Well done Thomas! Great review as always!
+Spokes Master 👌
Thanks by the way for the review! I asked this when i watched the type R review, a manual version. Thumbs up!
"The most evil one....." love it. LOL
(Y)
I requested a video with the Golf GTI Clubsport several months ago and you answered nicely, so i could compare it to the Seat Leon 290 review - AND NOW IT IS HERE! Thank you autogefühl! Made my Christmas! 😁
you re welcome enjoy :)
A shame it does not have the bucketseats...
I m glad it doesnt. Those ones are uncomfortable
Looks over comfort every day, noooooot 😂👎🏼 the Clubsport has the overboost to 290 HP for 10 sec, you do not mention that
FULL HD FULL SCREEN and FULL LENGTH Lets GOOOOO
YEAH!
You are kicking ass these days Thomas!
Merry Christmas AUTOGEFUHL and I hope you will have even better new year!!!
+George Manousakis we also wish you happy holiday
good ol chuckle with the dude flashing the lights..:p
Happy Holidays Thomas and everybody at Autogefuhl!!
merry xmas m8, enjoy!
Love these things. Also, Merry Christmas!
It's a great car but I'd just pay a few grand more to get a Golf R. Great review as always and merry christmas and a happy new year to the autogefuhl team :)
+Zachary Ong thank you buddy. We also wish you happy holidays
Great review Thomas!
+iridemotorbikes thanks :)
25:52 you were talking about the lane change.Apart from the interior view (your expression) , it would be great to see another video inset of how the car maneuvered on the road.
I liked the original Golf I & II GTI. It wasn't the same driving feeling anymore after the GTI version III came out.
Thank you for the great detailed Review and hard work, as always Thomas. Thanks for the autobahn rides! Nice interior of this car and agree, I think I prefer fixed hot keys on the centre display, rather than the face-lift's latest display. Stiff suspension on this car, great for racing geeks! At 40:24 you say "Safety First" - agree - I think safety is the only true measure of driving ability! Great car, great Review, thanks Autogefühl.
+gordon bennett 👌
Before I forget, Merry Christmas and Happy New year to the Autogefühl family!
merry xmas!
thomas! thnx for the awesome review. but! i'm also loving that overcoat/jacket you are wearing..lol! sorry. can you tell me the brand of the overcoat? keep up the good work. thnx again for your excellent car reviews.
hey m8, thanks! thats from h&m ...
I can't tell you how much it pains me that this never sees the light of the day in my side of the world. God damn you VW.
Thanks Thomas! Nice, a GTI on steroids for those who like it a bit sportier.
From your description it is clear though, that people should make a test drive to see if the suspension is still acceptable for them. Other than that it seems everything is a bit better than a standard GTI. Well, except the price of course! :-)
indeed!
Gerard van Essen The price was Exactly the same as for the standard GTI when i ordered the GTI Clubsport from VW in Wolfsburg 3 months ago... Not sure what happened, but the request for it have from what iv heard: been very high! (i do live in Sweden however & not sure if German pricing differs)
The same price? Wow, that is weird. I am from the Netherlands, and over here the Clubsport is over 6000 euro more expensive than the GTI Performance! It's basically halfway between the GTI and the R in terms of price here. But: excellent deal for you! Congrats on a great car!
Gerard van Essen Thanks! Like i said: Exactly the same here in Sweden. 32,254 USD for the manual & 33,832.99 for the DSG. My car landed on 37.800 because of the extras which was the following: DSG,DCC,Sunroof, Dynaudio 400W System, Keyless Acess, Extra Airbags in backseats. None of these are a must because the standard GTI CS comes very well equipped with for example Adaptive Cruise Control (which is fantastic). I do however very much recomend the optional Keyless Acess. After a while, youd wonder how you lived without it before.. (should exist for most VW models also) Maby one of the reasons the Clubsport is pricier in Netherlands is that your country may be more interested in the Legendary GTI badge, or just sell more Sport Cars than Sweden in general? With this 40 years of GTI Heritage model, it may also give you a bit better value once you sell it later.. Because its a Special Edition - IF you ever should decide to... ;)
The Clubsport is about 3 to 4k euros more expensive than the normal/Performance GTI. However, you get leather seats without extra costs (1700€) and some other stuff (alcantara steering wheel...).
It can get expensive on extras if you do not watch out. Mine started baseline at 34.000€ (Germany) and ended at 46k. Also, in Germany the car comes as stock as it can get, so it won't come with ACC as in Sweden (and I didn't pick it, as it doesn't make sense if you don't do Autobahn with a manual - my case).
The R started back then at 39.000 I believe, so 5k more expensive, except if you pick the leather seats (I have picked them) which would then make a 6.7k difference, quite a bit.
Oh come on! Bring us the facelift already! :P
seen our facelift world premiere?
Yes, I'm considering to buy the facelift GTI, so looking forward to the review on your channel, hopefully early in 2017.
exactly, early February
awesome review Thomas.
appreciated keep supporting us!
Wow to see Thomas towering over the car @ 3:43 really shows how tall 6 ft 1 (1m 86cm) really is!
You drove the best Golf ever ;-)
MaximalAnimal Cant send 100% of power to front wheels, plus its 4WD so equals to Less Fun... GTI always equals to FUN. Common Fact.
Common Fact only for you. If you don know how to drive 4wd with fun, it does not mean it is impossible.Also GTI does not have this jump from the start, which you can do with R. Actually "fast" start on GTI looks not far from start on corolla. Before to buy R, I tried both car. GTI was not club sport, it was 220 hp performance package, but in comparison with R it was really boring car...
Hey, Thomas great Video. :)
Did you mention or comment the Boostfunction, or did I just missed it ?
thanks! I didnt mention it because it's basically just a marketing gag
great video thomas i wish vw would just release the 400r as a final fairwell to the ultimate useable hatch category but wont because of audi s3 etc
Have a great holiday all @ Autogefühl !
merry xmas!
I love the detail that you go into in your reviews. It occurred to me that Volkswagens and Audis are perhaps the perfect Autogefuhl cars because of the attention paid to interior materials, fit/finish and button feel. Indeed the GTI is nicer inside than cars costing much more (3 series for example).
But, I can't help wondering if the extra money that VW spends on interior quality comes at the expense of reliability, durability and perhaps other hidden corner-cutting measures (such as what has been famously exposed with diesel-gate). Atleast in the US, VWs are reported to have a more than average number of issues over their lifetimes . When I read owner forums I learn about all manner of bizarre issues that I have never heard of with other makes (even with 10 years of BMW ownership!). Yet when I sit in a VW or Audi product, I really want one because of how nice the interiors are!
What are your thoughts?
I was wondering why Seat didn't make a second attempt at the nurburgring and now i think i know why
Hey, that was the transition from Düsseldorf airport towards Oberhausen. You should try-out it in a lowered Giulietta QV. Even better!
=)
I have the same car, if the car is in sport and you push the pedal to the floor, you feel a little "knob" and if you push that in, you have 10 sec 290hp and 380 NM. I love the alcantara steering wheel :)
nice =)
Strange you didnt mention it in your review. All clubsports has this, from the 3th gear and up
I'm glad they have changed the 2018 GTi seats
Beautiful, i love your channel
thank you so much!
My last comment in a nutshell: Even Autogefühl flavours of Volkswagen.
we are stating the positive and negative aspect with every car. There is no other car review channel who dares to tell every manufacturer that they should stop using animal skin. Everyone else bows down to be able to still get the cars from the manufacturers. We are not afraid to tell the truth - and it does not matter which brand a car comes from. However we dont make a car bad just to find something there isn't. The VW Golf is still one of the best overall cars around (price/performance ratio), you dont have to be a VW fan to acknowledge that
Autogefühl Thank you Thomas for your answer. I appreciate Autogefühl very much. Also because of your courage concerning animal skin. In general your reviews are state of the art. That VW issue is a little bit difficult. On the one hand these cars really make a good impression. On the other hand there are massive quality problems. And what I have observed is that German testers tend to criticize more if it's not a VW or another German product. Maybe German manufacturers meet the German taste better?
Many test criteria aren't only due to objective facts but also to very subjective ones.
thing is that we can rate look and feel, long-term durability it is better to check e.g. dekra gebrauchtwagenreport
Autogefühl In my opinion, as I have already said in the recent German comments, you weren't totally fair in rating the space in the rear seats of VW Polo GTI ( in the video at 13.05 ) and the Citroën C3 (in the video at 14.00). I would appreciate it very much if you could be more correct in your next review about the C3. Please watch the mentioned video sections again and be honest if the Polo hasn' t got a little sympathy bonus.
Autogefühl Thomas, although I sometimes criticize you hard in details, please don' t forget: I appreciate it very much what you are doing. Autogefühl is on a very high level. And, what' s very important, you answer questions and comments. There you are very different from most other youtube car channels. Thank you man!
great video which is more collectable the club sport 3 door or the clubsport s model
Hello Autogefühl team (I love you all, not only Thomas!!). I'm sorry to ask (maybe it has been answered in other comments below but I couldn't find it...) but what is that "240" sticker on the dashboard? (I have seen similar ones in other reviews).
Stéphane from France.
merci! Winter tyres are not allowed to be ridden faster than the sticker says :)
ahhhh okay, I see! Thank you for the quick response (you are working late, go home whoever you are!! lol)
Verry good revieuws Thomas 👍🏻
What camera did you use?
I see its not a go pro....
Thanks
+RUE5 EK4 thanks! Sony
Autogefühl ,Thank you for the answer👍🏻
I think I will wait to see the new seat cupra before I make up my mind.300 bhp and four wheel drive sounds great if seat do it .
It's an awesome car and I know it's a different beast to the R but I'd take the R over that anyday! Also microfibre steering wheels always tend to wear quite quickly!
Excellent, as always, review!!
Thanks 🙏
Thomas, you’re one of my favorite reviewers when it comes to cars, very thorough and easy to listen to!!
I love to hear that, keep supporting us
Great review Thomas but can somebody tell me what sound device that is in the trunk at 11:04? Or maybe a part number? I have a GTI Sport and would love something like that.
Danke Schon!
The revs sound super weak... what happened to the loud crackle sounds?
Josh The dude that happens in the dsg version
Really nice review, as always on your channel. Could you maybe specify here, what are the differences between GTI Clubsport version compared to GTI Performance package, excluding optical changes (exteriors/interior) and more powerful engine. It seems like the suspension/transmission is the same. Thanks!
Basic stuff is the same of course. Clubsport has this overboost function, micro fibre steering wheel, different seat style, some more hp
Why didn't you use the overboost in Sport mode with the kickdown giving you 290hp and 380nm ?
That consumption is about the same as my 528i with xdrive. i averaged about 9-10 liters on german autobahns going anywhere from 100 to almost 200 sometimes.
Verliebt
Back to 90's
Hi Thomas, top Video!
- Weißt du ob der Clubsport ein Facelift bekommen wird? - Wenn ja, wann?
Danke dir! :)
Hi! Ich denke schon, jetzt die Tage kam die Meldung, dass auch Golf R usw. geupdated werden, das wird sich nach und nach durch die Modellpalette ziehen. Da allerdings der Clubsport der letzte war, der vor dem Facelift rausgekommen war, denke ich, das wird auch der letzte sein, der das Facelift erhält.
That 240 sticker. Is that the obligated EU sticker that almost nobody sticks on? I believe it is for the winter tyres right?
Still that envy when a car, a bloody probably 1.6D Passat, passes you. We will always be boys when it comes to that.
Btw also nice looking watch you have.
when winter tyres are mounted yes
At 21:19 you are checking a small monitor to see if the speed is showing, whitch camera and monitor are you using?
Is there another small monitor on the other side, near the mirror?
Sony FDR it is!
Will the club sport sell on USA? And have a great Christmas Tomas and the crew
didnt hear about that yet. Merry xmas!
thankyou for another great review 😊
you re welcome, tune in for more reviews!
i prefer my mk7 3dr performance pack gti to the clubsport great review as always thankyou
keep joining us !
Why?
i am noticed exactly change sound in sport mode from vw soundaktor
ich finde der 6te Gang muss viel länger übersetzt sein, keine Ahnung wie das bei anderen Autos ist aber wenn ich in den sechsten Gang Schalte sollte die Drehzahl schon richtig absacken. bei 140 kmh auf 2200 Umdrehungen ist denke ich realistisch und ist noch besser zu fahren denke ich
Timo Ta bei 250km/h bist du schon in der Nähe der redline. Ich habe doch den Clubsport mit HS und finde es genau richtig 😊
Awesome Thomas :)
thanks m8 !
Not sure if we can buy this in Texas. Frohe Weihnachten!
Cool video love it)
I would like smart infotainment system, I wish I could hook up my phone through the panel and play my spotify instead of bluetooth connection
hope you know that this volkswagen has a sound generator installed. so don't wonder ;) some people deinstall this module to have a more silent font room.
Thomas, how can you know the voice is going to speak if you turned the volume down?
it does when u approach the next intersection
Hi, Thomas. Do you have a possibility to review BMW 330i? This could be interesting to know you opinion on this alternative to cars like GTI. (It has 2.0 liter engine). Also it's a rear car on roads, just like this Clubsport.
hey, lets see what we can do
I really wonder if there has been (and still is) common philosophy between vw s and porsche s sports road car ... since vw was a car created by ferdinand porsche s industry
Nice review, but it has a boost function, you didnt mention it.
it's a marketing gag and does not change very much
I think you are wrong, when the overboost is working, you get 290 hp and 380 NM. You can see it in sport mode from the 3th til 6th, for 10 seconds the boost is going to 2.1 bar.
Hi Thomas, have you done a review on focus R?
Enjoy those:
ruclips.net/video/RdFkKl6fO5I/видео.html
ruclips.net/video/OOGVDfsHPNI/видео.html
And another RS review from me next year
Autogefühl thanks.
So nice.
Please Do a review on Vw polo gti . Thank you .
always search "carbrand modelname autogefuehl"
ruclips.net/video/lAZ2Wmgl1Zg/видео.html
They should make an R clubsport
Will the clubsport be facelifted?
I think so.
nice watch :) what model?
ignore...you said it in the video :))) Thomas can you read minds? :P
+radu_c :)
also have a very happy Christmas
merry xmas!
Can you tell me what does the EPC sign showing when your vechile is off 08:14?
+Meljo John nothing, just showing that the light works. Just worry when engine is running
Thank you so much for your reply.....its not showing anything while running......and i like all your videos its awesome details of info you provide with perfect quality camera :)
I doubt that car can repeat the record time on the ring because it's heavier than the other one.
ye as I explained with the rear bench
die felgen sind fresh tho
Is not it so boring to test petrol engine car after Tesla Model X?
It was definetely something different but as you can see I had lot of fun =)
Merry Christmas to Everyone!
merry xmas!
This is not the 2017 facelift model is it?
Listen to what I am saying :)
Fernando C which we could understand what he is saying lol
dream car
bring it to the states
I want this car, please bring it to US
e-Golf Facelift online, and Golf R Facelift review will also be coming up!
i intend too !
You look like ignis from FFXV
It's not microfiber it's Alcantara, not the same thing.
Alcantara is a brand, like Dinamica. Microfibre is the meta-term for the material.

Hey Autogefühl, du kommst doch aus Essen, fährst auf jeden Fall imme in und um Essen mit den Autos... Warum machst du deine Videos nicht in deiner Heimatsprache??? Grüße aus Essen
Die Welt schaut zu :)
I have this car but the 3 door version, looks more sporty then this one
i want to see IONIQ
What’s Autobahn?
try google
I did try that. It obviously brought up the motorway. I see a Golf GTI Autobahn version. What's the difference between that and a regular Golf GTI?
i just dont get why u always driving on the left side of autobahn (but not overtaking and keeping the speed limit, is it so hard to move on right side? and let the other pass you if they want) and then u are mad because some gays want to pass you haha..if u are not overtaking is no reason to drive on left side..i just dont get this :D no hard feelings :D great review.
Some people keep driving 120 no matter if 80 or 160 is allowed. When its 100, I drive 100. When its unlimited, I drive faster.

Pls get some english lessons... esp on the pronunciation
Komisch dass Native Speaker unser Englisch sehr mögen und nur Deutsche damit ein Problem haben.
I am American and I find your English to be perfectly acceptable. Only rarely do you mispronounce a word.
