I havent driven either and neither do I intend to.
Both the new rs and vws offerings do nothing for me what so ever.

i'M OLD SKOOL rear wheel drive/ 80'S retro fwd ,
( i own a mk2 scirocco storm so im not ford biased either)

I just think that an opinion based video stating driver preference isn't indicative of the cars potential performance.,
there should be acceleration tests, drags race, braking distance challenge.
lap times etc.

If the scirocco is a better car then fair play to it .
