MacMatV2 oh ok didnt know that i thought you could select the new m steering wheel as an option Nevertheless i would just change the steering wheel and upgrade it to the new one
I have a 7.5 Golf R. I think it's great, and I got it because of the usability and comfort as I do a lot of miles. I can't deny I prefer the BMW engine, but as an everyday tool I'm happy I have the Golf.
Hey, in my opinion this is one of your best videos on your channel. I could saw how much fun you had when you where driving the 135i on the country road :D It would be nice if you two could do more videos from this kind. Greetings from Germany :)
Maybe some of you guys think I'm crazy - I sold my Cupra R and bought a M140i Manual. The M140i isn't as sharp as the Cupra, but I love changing gears by this 6-cylinder engine. Also in wet conditions is it fun to slide, there was no fun with the Cupra R. There are many fast hot hatches, but I always choose the ultimate 3.0l turbo charged understatement beast🤘
@@MacMatV2 Cause of the engine it is faster. In my opinion the Cupra R feels a bit more like a track toy compared to the M140i. It isn't the top version like the R and you feel it - it's the M2
The golf is faster and quicker. The catless downpipe in the 135i helps a lot and also it has a intake. If the 135i would have been stock it would have been slower all around. And don't forget that the R moves 4 wheels while the 135i only 2. In theory even if the cars would be identical in weight and power the 135i should be faster because it has less power loss in the drivetrain. All this added makes the R even more impressive if you ask me.
A lot of comments from people who have probably never driven either. They are both fantastic cars for different reasons (I chose the Golf), but the idea that anyone would make a very serious choice (to the majority) of purchasing a car based purely on the noise it makes need to give their heads a wobble. Each car is a better car to different people, based on their requirements. Handing over a lot of cash for a car is very different to clicking play on a RUclips video.
Had an FK2 Type R for nearly 3 years and looking to 'upgrade' so test drove a 2019 golf r and was a totally underwhelming experience. Quick off the line but so so dull to drive. Tried an M140i and was a lot more entertaining so on the lookout for a BMW now! Obviously neither car compare to the FK2 for the handling but the M140i will be a great replacement plus it sounds better than the Golf!
I am so glad to see someone do a non biased view on both cars. I drive a golf R in Australia. they have just released the golf R here as the limited Edition. it is fully optioned with the brakes wheels leather and exhausts.drive away 48.000 euro. why did that golf cost so much money?. thats about $120.000Au. here $67.000Au and i thought that was expensive for a golf. the limited edition looks no different from the standard golf R.no more power. and standard R has better wheels and costs about $8000 cheaper. i can understand the BMW and its followers as a drivers car. but the grip in the wet from the golf is amazing!. i never get bored of driving it.but VW could have made that a bit more special,
The Golf is awesome as a daily driver. Bmw is my pick coz I just love em to bits. I'm loving my 340i non x drive with the rear wheel drive in sport+ mode and the paddleshifts:-)) Great reviews as usual. Greetings from South Africa ///M
The golf R in my opinion it’s such a safe option you can’t go wrong really their not really expensive but u get a lot of car for the money, golf have come so far imo and bmw basically have the same car as they did in 2011 set from a few different exterior changes so personally would go for golf r
The M135i has so much more driving character than even this particular Golf R (which looks stunning in its own right). The Golf R sounds great... for a Golf R. But it can’t compare to the silky smooth scream of a straight six. The styling of the M135i is awkward and frumpy, and I LOVE the look of hatchbacks. BMW didn’t make the greatest looking hatch. Maybe hatchies need to be FWD to look right? I’m a big BMW fan but my current ride is a GTI.
The Golf is way better. Looks more modern, I really love the dynamic turn signals, digital dash and the sound is great aswell. The bmw looks like it‘s from the stone age
Man videos like this are fucking great!! Would love to see more of this comparisons, specially at the Autobahn. Keep it up guys, your channel is the best.
Your video is a spettacular . Very cool Men good job , but the vw Golf is a most special car , is a realy brutal sound and design is a magic . Thancks for your magic video .
Love BMW engines they are powerful as hell, but their interior designerneeds to be fired. All BMW looks the same inside throughout all the ranges and its getting old. You could buy a BMW from 4 years ago and itll look the same inside as a brand new one, otherthan that BMW are monsters
wel ik ben het ermee eens maar nu de nieuwe m135i wordt een 4cyl. wat is dan nog het verschil tussen de 2 want het geluid is dan ook niet meer wat het was
i love the 6 cilynder sound engin but, the golf it's more effective, my i choose the leon cupra st 4drive it's better on the corners than the golf r and cheapper
Love the M135I, in my opinion it's a much more playful car in comparison to the Golf R. However totally different cars, interiorwise, engine wise etc. I'm very curious about the new interior on the upcoming 1 series. I think that the Golf R then takes the second place interiorwise, Love the vid as always however, it hurts me how the start/stop function kills the engine right after blazin in on the autobahm. Put it outtt !
The looks of the M135i let it down for me. Interior looks bland compared to the Golf and even the quad vs dual exhaust looks much better on the Golf. There is not much in it power wise and the added benefit of 4WD would be the clincher for me.
If i had to choose between these based on performance. I'd take the Civic Type R with a tune instead of boring germans with expensive name brand metal tubing under the car....
@@rensoalink451 I'm sorry, I have a golf and its exciting. Likes and choices are personal. It looks more beautiful to me, sounds good with no fake speakers. Huh if I have a choice to change my car, I'd probably change it with an RS3
It's not an entirely fair comparison. The Golf R is more of a young family guy or gal's car - you'll see them with baby seats in them. Whereas the BMW is more of an older family guy or gal's car - a family who has teenage children or no children. With BMW you have to make practicality sacrifices. With the Golf, you sacrifice some of the fun. So pick the one that fits your life best. Also, a Civic Type R, and a Ford Focus RS also has similar sacrifices as the BMW. Comparing the Civic Type R and the BMW might be a fairer comparison as both are 2 wheel drive and both require usability sacrifices. That said, the civic will never, ever win against the BMW on sound.
The BMW 35i/40i straight-six engine is a monster, I love it!
Monster...LOL
Monster...LOL 2

A bit too much info about your relationship: 13:18 "My rear end is a bit loose and his will never be"!

You should get the proper m-steering wheel
this wheel looks so much better and feels better than the m wheel
i didnt liked this one but now i like it , dont know why . i think it just looks good
That's the "real" M wheel, it's just the old one.
MacMatV2 oh ok didnt know that i thought you could select the new m steering wheel as an option
Nevertheless i would just change the steering wheel and upgrade it to the new one
why?

Bmw steering Wheel looks like its from 1994 or some thing 😂
Cause its not the new one
i realy like that steering Wheel
@@markusnietsch2832 It feels much nicer than the new one as well. Won't say that it looks better though, haha.
The whole interior looks like 1994, way behind VAG, Mercedes.
This is the 2011 interior I think...pre LCI II. In 7 years a lot has happened....

"The M140i isn't as sharp as the Cupra,". What do you mean by "sharp"? Isnt m140 faster?
@@MacMatV2
Cause of the engine it is faster.
In my opinion the Cupra R feels a bit more like a track toy compared to the M140i. It isn't the top version like the R and you feel it - it's the M2
The M140i - even being a compact car - feels like a proper GT car:
RWD
Lot of torque
The golf is faster and quicker. The catless downpipe in the 135i helps a lot and also it has a intake. If the 135i would have been stock it would have been slower all around.

i think this is one of the best test drive i have ever seen. great job guys, keep it going!
In-line-6 easy win!
And RWD
I6 a top uglies sound in bmw...
Lol were did you seen easy win? They simular and i drag race bmw is loser to the awd golf so not a easy win...
@@danielr.8345 This comparison is focusing on car' sounds!
Oooo well than youre right
Worth pointing out the BMW top speed is *electronically* limited and can easily be removed, then it's higher than the Golf's
Please fit an M steering wheel to the M135i because the stock one is hideous! Love the car!
M135i F20🔥❤🔥
This BMW is a MASTERPIECE.
This car can't be compared to others, a real engine, for a Real beauty Car.
The GOLF looks stunning especially with this color and BMW have more powerful engine.. Interesting video 👍👍
Golf is more entertaining than BMW.
@@MrBamcito never
Does it have more powerful engine? It looked the same to me. Actually golf has better traction, so it's faster to 100.
I Love GolfR ,😍
Golf R, I love❤️❤️❤️❤️
I was so happy to see your friend left the Golf 7R running/ idling when you were switching cars after the autobahn blast to let the turbo cool down...
I love i6 engines and I love oldschool cars

77k € for a golf.Where the hell this world is going 🤔
Chill out, here in Brazil we don't even have Golf R, only Golf GTI, and it costs around $100,000
In Denmark Golf R starts at 100 thousand us dollars stop crying.
Wasnt it 77 for BMW? And 55 for Golf?
@@emilhalonen5 Golf is 77k with options
100,000 Subscribers With No Videos that’s right the BMW is 77K the Golf R is 55K
M135i all day
good choice you choose the right car i agree With you me too i prefer the rwd 6cylander less beautiful but much fun to drive
I have an M135i and I love it!
Golf R for everyday
And BMW for the weekend!!!
Interesting review
Not fan of the gold color for the VW...
Cars sounds both amazing

Great reviews as usual. Greetings from South Africa ///M
its better to have a loose rear end and just correct it than having stupid understeer in awd
M kl but its easier to correct oversteer
Amazing!
You cant compare 6 cylinder engine with 4 cylinder

This is excellent video between 2 car
I own the exact same R, the color is called Curcuma Yellow
In my opinion, the golf just looks so much more modern. Inside and from the outside
Another great video, as always top job, thanks guys 👍
Volkswagen needs to work on the pathetic stock sound of GTI/R.
the best POV channel on youtube. The Golf R is the total package, daily driver, all weather, and much better interior
Doe meer van zo video’s is echt interessant zo dingen tegen elkaar op
Love the vids man. Love the m135i. I have one. Not enough videos of these bmws. so good. Keep it up!!💪🏻💪🏻
Golf Rs need APR stage 2 to become what they should be.
do more videos like this with two cars
More videos like this please
I would choose the Golf R. It gives real fun with more usability and speed on the ground! But of course the 6 cannons with sliding rear are awesome!
M135i is also available with awd
The M135i has so much more driving character than even this particular Golf R (which looks stunning in its own right). The Golf R sounds great... for a Golf R. But it can’t compare to the silky smooth scream of a straight six. The styling of the M135i is awkward and frumpy, and I LOVE the look of hatchbacks. BMW didn’t make the greatest looking hatch. Maybe hatchies need to be FWD to look right? I’m a big BMW fan but my current ride is a GTI.
19:15 bmw was braking
The Golf is way better.
Looks more modern, I really love the dynamic turn signals, digital dash and the sound is great aswell.
The bmw looks like it‘s from the stone age
I am a big fan of VW, but i must admit the exhaust on the BMW is very nice!
I have that same golf r, unfortunately when i bought mine we couldn't select the akrapovic exhaust. The color name is curcuma/turmeric yellow
Man videos like this are fucking great!! Would love to see more of this comparisons, specially at the Autobahn. Keep it up guys, your channel is the best.
Yeah where I’m from the r is more expensive , it’s a nice car though looks aggressive and special but I’d go for 135i coz of the price
Your video is a spettacular . Very cool Men good job , but the vw Golf is a most special car , is a realy brutal sound and design is a magic . Thancks for your magic video .
golf all day thank you
Love BMW engines they are powerful as hell, but their interior designerneeds to be fired. All BMW looks the same inside throughout all the ranges and its getting old. You could buy a BMW from 4 years ago and itll look the same inside as a brand new one, otherthan that BMW are monsters
agreed. their interior is just cheap and boring
The emergency window breakers in the Golf R, where did you get them? Because they look to have a neat hook onto the edge of the door bin.
135i 💙💙💙🔥🔥🔥💣💣💥💥
The R is also very fast
I love this channel the videos with commentary are the best but what can you do
Insane how a fully loaded Golf R is 77000 EUR in Europe but ~42000 EUR in Australia.
We usually pay a lot more for Euro cars.
Yeah The Golf Start in Germany by 42000€ with full domestic Equipments cost The Golf 77000.
Really good driver!!!
I will choose the BMW
M135I for sur the best fun an have a real motor
Pls do more videos of this kind, compare 2 cars on autoban ....for me, this is your best video so far 😊
What i think? I think you didnt stopped at the stop sign 😉⛔
13:19 😂 this had me crying
wel ik ben het ermee eens maar nu de nieuwe m135i wordt een 4cyl. wat is dan nog het verschil tussen de 2 want het geluid is dan ook niet meer wat het was
iam a big vw fan golf r is so good but when i want sport min 6 cylinder no 2 liter turbo tfsi
i love the 6 cilynder sound engin but, the golf it's more effective, my i choose the leon cupra st 4drive it's better on the corners than the golf r and cheapper
@19:31, you mean to race on the street ? yes racing does tend to be extremely fun.
Now that was a nice review! :D
Классный канал, спасибо за такие сравнения)
Here in Germany the Golf R starts at 42.000 €
SansuiAUX901 because german is best within cars
Very good vidéo 😉
M135i is better for the RWD, having fun with some drifts and stuff... and the straight six... ufff
Nice review
Nice test :)

BMW for sure. Dream pocket rocket

I was thinking about buying an aftermarket akrapovic exhaust and sell the original one
BMW BMW BMW BMW - best car ever. The Golf R is no match
Wat haal je ongeveer qua verbruik met de BMW?
freaking amazing
That golf is fuckin insane!! Much much better quality and stability than BMW!
