Golf R's all-wheel-drive system always manages to find the eye of the storm

READY. SET. LAUNCH CONTROL

The old adage, ‘the more things change, the more they stay the same’ sums up the latest Golf R to a tee. And now that I’ve got the first, and thankfully last golfing pun out the way, we can see how VW has once again twisted the needle a fraction to ensure the Mk8 Golf R keeps its reputation as the fastest Golf, with a warranty and service plan, that money can buy. 

Considering that the eighth version of the GTI received a lukewarm reaction caused by some rather low-tier materials and a finicky touchscreen, the Golf R isn’t launching off its usual strong platform. Not that a few niggles are enough to dethrone the most affordable all-wheel drive hot hatch that has an answer to everything you throw at it.
