So my biased opinion is that I find most German cars lacking in personality and they are dreadfully dull, they are also extremely common. I considered the Scirocco R (Mainly as it is less common and looks better) and the Golf R but I felt they were overpriced and I struggled to get excited about owning one. I never actually test drove either of them. I had a test drive in the FK8 and decided it wasn’t worth bothering with the VW’s for the reasons I mentioned. I see plenty of Golf R’s around all the time but I rarely see other FK8 CTR’s. I like to drive something which is a bit different so this was appealing. The styling isn’t to everyone’s taste but the car has presence. At the end of the day there’s not much to choose between the best hot hatches on the market, I guess it depends on what your priorities are but I have not regretted buying the FK8 for one second.
