• Golf 8 GTI Review - We...
In this latest epic drag race, that we staged recently at the Aldo Scribante circuit outside Gqeberha, the latest Volkswagen Golf 8 GTI takes on the BMW 128ti over a quarter mile.
With the BMW now riding on a front wheel drive platform, these cars are more similar than ever. Both cars have 2.0-litre, 4-cyl turbo engines with almost identical power outputs, however the BMW is a touch lighter.
So, which one would take victory over 400m? Only one way to find out...

In Europe the difference will be even greater. The European 128ti comes as standard with more power and torque... at 195kw and 400nm.

@johnfranklin6394 3 года назад

I have the 128ti in the UK with 265ps and 400nm. It definitely feels quicker than the Golf GTI Performance DSG that I had for 3 years. That car had the same 245ps and 370nm of the new standard Golf GTI.

@sl8094 3 года назад

Guys good work. (next time swap drivers, as each driver has his own skills, maybe the results will change as the drivers are swapped, and also please do a 3 out of 3 always for drags etc, to get an avergae result.). Other than that, i have no complaints, may the channel grow and prosper🙏

@ScrotyMcDickface 2 года назад

Hello again. I've checked. The BMW has 20 less horsepower in your country than it has just about everywhere else: normally 265bhp and 400nm torque. Strangely, the Golf is apparently unaltered. You like the Golf there. Most people outside of there like the BMW. Kudos, though.

@cybermediars9447 3 года назад

High quality video. BMW is going to challenge a GTI is not ahealthy war for BMW a lot of rivals had come and go the GTI remains unshaken . Look at what happened to benz when they think they can challenge a Toyota hilux they failed miserably .it not about premium badges here it all about reputation and street cred and vrrphaa has a massive fan base here in southern Africa

@richardohaletse7396 3 года назад

@JPMeyer92 3 года назад

I wonder what the result would be without traction control? I tend to turn it off when racing my Polo GTI since it just interferes too much; I can manage the throttle and boost in a way that gives my enough traction without bogging the car down. It's a vastly different car from these machines, of course, but I am curious if the results would be any different in this case.

When can we expect the review of the 128ti, driving comfort and stuff?

@johnfranklin6394 3 года назад

I recently got the 128ti, and had the mk 7.5 GTI Performance DSG before that for 3 years. Both cars with passive dampers. The 128ti is distinctly firmer, so less forgiving on a potholed or just uneven surface for sure. However, it feels more refined overall, and more planted on the road. It corners significantly flatter than the mk 7.5 GTI Performance. I have not driven the mk 8 GTI, and that may be as equally refined as the 128ti.

@siyandabiyela2601 3 года назад

@troyahpak3719 3 года назад

There is an Australian channel that did a drag race with the new GTi that had the same issue. Eventually they bettered the factory claimed time (they did 6.2 sec) by switching traction off and dropping from a lower rev than the launch holds it at.

The 128ti has been detuned in South africa due to it being a hot weather country. In the UK the 128ti would have beaten it by miles.

@johnfranklin6394 3 года назад

Agreed. I am in the UK and have a 128ti that replaced my previous mk 7.5 Golf GTI Performance. The 128ti feels stronger thanks to its 265ps and 400nm compared to the 245ps and 370nm of my old Golf. And, as you no doubt know, the mk 8 GTI also has 245ps and 370nm.
