The VW Golf GTI Clubsport S Just Went Around The 'Ring Even Damn Faster
VW has just sliced two seconds off its existing Clubsport S laptime, breaking its own front-wheel drive Nurburgring record in the process
As if pinching the Honda Civic Type R’s front-wheel drive Nurburgring lap record wasn’t enough, VW has just improved its personal best with the Clubsport S. The already very impressive 07min 49.21sec lap has been improved by just over two seconds with the 306bhp, two-seater lightweight special clocking a 07min 47.19sec effort.
Your move, Honda…
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

Yes, it is an awesome, limited edition car. But I’d rather buy a Golf R for about the same money
Or a Seat Cupra 300!
Club’ owners vs lawn mower owners. No suprise that club’ owners are faster, it’s all about the money :p
If Honda is lawn mower drivers then vw are beetle drivers
What a wonderfully well setup car. You can see it rotating in the “S es”. I’m impressed!

Yeah i’ve seen it, just wow
Honda be like
VTEC needs to kick in….Even Harder.
Meanwhile, BMW M2 be like…
VW have 718 Cayman S which is faster ;)
All you guys sitting there waiting for Honda to beat that time. And I’m just sitting here waiting for the new RenaultSport Megane.
I’m with you! :D
i’m waiting the Clio rs 16 to drop some hot lap record
Not a big fan of how Renault shred weight. Replace rear window with plastic is ridiculous.
Hopefully the new Civic Type R will obliterate the Clubsport!
God it already looks riced out.
Wtf is breating?
7 mins 47….that’s exactly a whole minute behind the Pagani Zonda R! Still though, is the club sport really worth it over a GTI performance pack?
