You cant beat a golf R out of the box really, they are incredible cars especially for the price. I'm not even into German cars that much, but the golf R's are actually sick.
I’ve got the same car in 5 door.. full spec, 19inch prets, pan roof, carbon Vienna leather, race pack, nav.. in manual! Reflex silver is genuinely insane in all lighting. Even with stock 300bhp, it absolutely rips in the corners. Best hot hatch all rounder in my opinion!
@@MrCharlan1 That’s precisely why I’m buying an RS3 in a few months time 😂 I do agree with you, they are faster than the R straight off the bat, but in terms of being available in manual, economy, all weather capability etc I’d say the golf is the better all rounder. That rs3 tho 😍 definitely planning for a stage 2 build!
Really enjoy your POV videos Ricky , I can feel how the car handles through the video ; better than any structured review. The way you drive, the roads you drive on and the light commentary e.g 'you couldn't take the corner like that in a 140i' are all spot on.
The reason for the base sound you were hearing was probably the sound actuator pumping sound into the cabin. Sounds cool but to invasive. I turned mine down to 50%
Great vids keep up the good work ! I’m looking at a 2018 golf r or 2018 bmw m140i. Don’t no if I can trust bmw dodgy handling as so tail happy 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️

Yes Ricky C'mon Bro This MK7 Golf R's are Quick asf from Factory but this Stage 2 400bhp Monster is Next Level absolutely Love it bro What a Car man Should Definitely do more of these 99p Comps and Do the odd £20 Comp like Your Dodge Hellcat but Loving The Content man Great Video As Always Ricky Keep #ONIT The Way This Thing Just Takes Corners when you Flat The Throttle is Absolutely Nuts 💯 😍❤️👀
I’m biased as I have a Golf R myself lol. IMO the Golf R takes the edge over the S3 however it’s all up to your preference. If the cars a daily as-well as a fun car to use I’d recommend the Golf R. If you want something a little more unpredictable and raw I’d go for the 135i/140i. The Golf R though in my opinion is the ultimate daily. In normal/eco i average 25-33mpg around town and have reached up to 41mpg on the motorway.
Neither. M140i just fishtails all over the road when you put the hammer down. Golf type R too fast, too dear. Has to be a Fiesta ST for me in Azure blue, black alloys, black rally mudflaps. 200 brake, more than enough for UK roads and you keep your license, unbeatable handling and driver feedback. And all that fast Ford heritage.
@@richardburns5925 A stock m140i with pilot super sports doesn't even break traction when you floor it from anything above 30mph on dry roads, and I drive with DCT off in the summer. had a Fiesta ST before my m-lite and do sometimes miss it, never had a car that is so much fun for B roads.
@@conorf8091 I know! VW has lost its quality since the 70s and 80s, they are now no more reliable, trouble free and better built than anything else. In fact worse. People seem to be brainwashed and go all starry eyed when they see a VW badge. Look at the rust on a golf, especially the front wings, they rust inside out! Look at the engine problems on the T5, the fuel pump and injector problems on a diesel Polo...... That's why it's a Ford every time for me. That Golf R is faster than a Fiesta ST, in a straight line, the Fiesta will out handle it on a twisting B road.
Yeah I’ve bought a gold R over the weekend. Kind of regret it being in the uk as there are cameras everywhere, can’t really enjoy it. Having lived in Tenerife for long time, over there no cameras lots of mountains and quiet roads to have fun with it. Uk sucks.
hi man like Ricky ain't you noticed the front discs and calipers ain't the real brake setup they should have nicer looking calipers with the R sign ingraved and the discs just standard vented and not groved or drilled
Nice car , But …. Unfortunately with all the traction and stability aids these cars have , there not much of challenge to drive . Don’t get get me wrong love the car, just not my cup of tea. Guess having strip down, caged , straight cut dogbox, and crazy suspension cars ,everything else feels kinda numb.
@@moustachecash248 Mate I don’t even want to think about that!!! I love the performance potential from the M140i’s but I’ve personally never liked the look. (Hot take so probably going to have some 140i fans hating 😂)
Theres a reason these cars are everywhere, they are just so good.
& because Volkswagen did an absolute boat load of cheap & appealing Finance deals on them for years…😂 Class car regardless
Bit boring tho😒
I’m looking to get one😄
And cause they keep getting stolen
They are mate picked mine up 2 weeks ago. Love it

400bhp is the new 200bhp.
Facts. 500hp is the standard these days
@@jj3044 what do you mean by the standard?
@@MrCharlan1 the standard for a solidly modded car these days. 500bhp/400-420whp
I'm in for tomorrow Rick! Also been watching Windsor bullys seen you on there aswell man! Been an og from years. 💯💥
99p per entry is awesome. Cheap as chips and gives us punters more flexibility. I entered both. 🤞
Looking forward to the draw tomorrow Ricky, finger's crossed 👌🏽
Yoww Ricky I really enjoyed this video, played it back a lot 👍🏾 need more videos like this man. Watching from St.Vincent respect bredda
Am on my 3rd GR7. Sticking with 7.5. Always loved Reflex Silver. Best colour.
I'm crazy obsessed with the VW golf R .....my dream car actually 😍 👌
I love this car man ! Absolutely perfect weekend car for vlogs
why is no one saying anything about the prints on the front of the focus 0:20
So happy it’s a 3dr 😍
Silver suits the golfs so well!👍
Yup. Always crisp. Pops in sun when proper detailed, and is least revealing of road dirt.
Great content Ricky, good stuff mate.
Can we talk about the hand and face prints on the front of the Focus? Was that like a Titanic scene off camera? lol
Exactly
Out here searching for this comment, so glad I wasn't the only one questioning it 😂
@@kaisergurdeep Yeah his camera man is a really nice lad lol
Man like ricky with the productions. Good shit
M140, sometimes☀️
Golf R, all the time☀️🌧☃️

Where do I enter for the raffles? And also brilliant content you always give great reviews on the cars been watching for time never gets old bro👊🏾👌🏽

Ricky puts it innnnn on that fiesta haha RESPEK enjoy life to the fullest respek from amsterdam!
Been waiting for another R . 👍
0:19 Ayoo Ricky? What's been going on on top of the bonnet eh 👀
Just about to comment the same thing, thought i would check the comments first haha
what car would everyone go for out of a golf r, audi s3 or m135i ?
S3 and golf r are very similar but probably the s3 but out of all the 135 would be the most fun😂

@@tyranic1 not true. I’ve had 44mpg on 50mph motorways on a stage 2. Average 38-39 on 70 roads
Was better the 140i or the golf R Ricky
How can I enter to win the golf R....are the drawings only exclusive to England?
Hopefully I actually win something In my life never won a thing but have entered for this beauty of a car and love the content ricky keep it up 👌🏻
Ricky. How can I contact you to do a review on an 500bhp Rs3 conversion vw golf r mk7?
Just entered the Comp for the M140i 😀 🙏
Cant go wrong with a golf r even the new one didn’t like it at first but its grown on man
Great car for the money 🔥🔥
Had one of the best time in these Rtech stage 2 with a Tvs software gearbox map
bro i swear car intro is like in nfs sick man
335d xdrive or golf r ?
I'm trynna decide on that aswell 😂
If I was to have a golf I'd have to pick one without the tartan seats too . Great cars but I couldn't have grandad seats in mine .
I personally love the tartan seats
I hope you all out there really know Ricky's real man
My perfect upgrade 🙌🏼
Bro the hand prints on the focus what you been doing 😅😂
Is that the worlds biggest stone chip above the passager headlight
I will have one of these soon inshallah
Where would the live start?
For the 99p golf

Golf intro song?
Got my tickets 🔥🔥

Stock brakes, just been painted red, they don't have drilled or grooved discs from factory
That focus ST 😂😂😂
Colour is banging
Ricky I’m not hating but at @5:14 why the hell are you crossing your arms 😮I thought you were a driver Bud 🤦♂️😂
When I done track days, the instructors taught you to do that, so you are in full control of the wheel.
I would enter but I’m 18 and the insurance on it would be stupid money, I’d have to take the cash alternative aswell to insure it 😂
3.0l m140i vs 2.0l R isnt comparable imo, but for a 2l the R is the best option
Yes.......get that st up for raffle Ricky.
Fking love that!
Whats happend to LLF ?
Anyone else notice something on the st 0:19 seconds in 😂
🤣🤣🤣
anyone spot the audi logo on the adaptive cruise
Where’s the gtr ?
i wanna get one but im to scared for it to get stolen.. :I
imagine winning a car for 99p lol would feel so blessed
I can bet it's clocked before the first MOT, or has had a mileage blocker 😶
If it’s not running an upgraded intercooler it’s not running 400bhp
Nice motor
19's ? Not so sure.
Very nice car
Didn’t you have another RUclips channel? 😂
would be a nice win to go with my same coloured cupra
Beast R
Anyone clock the marks on the focus’s bonnet? Ahahahaha
Hurry up and sort out the pink MG bro
mk7.5r worth the extra
🚀🔝
I'm going to have to get me a few tickets for this 1
Rather have a45 tbh
This makes me regret selling my MK7 R :(
First 😀😄😁
