With the industry pool returning to the Nürburgring this week Volkswagen’s Mk7 Golf R dropped by to wind its way around the famed 20.832km track.
Big front air intakes look set to remain and the centre-mount twin exhaust tips will make way for quad tips, with two on either side of the car.
Now that we’ve seen the specs for the Audi S3 we can probably make a well educated guess and state the new R will use the latest Haldex V all-wheel drive system and boast 221kW/380Nm or thereabouts. Although some reports suggest power may be clipped to 213kW.

Asians will buy it regardless…
I think lots of people will buy it because it is sure to be very good and if it’s still priced well it will make a fairly compelling case too.
