Could well end up just being called the R, but VW are testing the 5 cylinder engine in the Golf 8. Interesting...... Golf |

That is a fine sounding engine to me.

Exciting, hopefully a proper car to be put into production rather than a Woersee, whatever its called, special

How do we even know VW own it? There are a couple of self built ones doing the rounds.

The comments section seem to agree it is a self built thing. Oddly, it sounds as if it has the DSG box, but none of the associated farty upshifts that come with it. Maybe it can be programmed out, which is a good thing.

I'd definitely buy a car like that if it had a manual gearbox.
