Breathtaking vlog. Kinda makes me want to drop everything and do this but alas at 46 I’m not sure circumstances will allow. Fair play to you lads, nothing better than nice cars, great roads and good company.

[@hampshirephoto]

Thanks so much!

[@chvrs2002]

being Swiss, I can see that you are not used to mountain roads, luckily I was not behind you! speed up a little damn, you got a golf R, an M2, an abarth, a Z4 damn it

[@scottcampbell10]

Wicked video man, some of those roads look epic! Can't wait to see the rest of the videos from the trip!

[@hampshirephoto]

Thanks!

[@Crumblacrumbs]

lemme give you a tip and tell you to use both front facing and driver focused camera povs at the same time. show your face like you’re facetiming someone while showing off the driving. makes it simpler when you’re constantly switching between povs

[@MehMeh]

Drove those roads years ago in a Daewoo Matiz 4 speed auto, that was scary! Fantastic trip though.

[@0WhyNot3]

That's what i cal the slowest driver in the world

[@aydencaldwell2472]

Why would you drive like an idiot in country’s you don’t know? For a start you need to get use to driving on the right hand lane , petrol isn’t cheap either

[@0WhyNot3]

@@aydencaldwell2472AydenCaldwell what's the point of choosing the tightest roads if you're not here to enjoy your car and the view. There are a lot of good roads without this. He even gets excited because of how tight and narrows the roads are

[@aydencaldwell2472]

Pigeon so? Does that bother you they aren’t there to race they are there for the whole drive and the scenery etc I certainly wouldn’t kick the arse out my car in another country risking crashing

[@0WhyNot3]

@@aydencaldwell2472 Why are you so into this. Do you really think you will change anyone's mind? You must be having a bad day. Rip

[@0WhyNot3]

@@aydencaldwell2472 I just want him to drive a little bit harder to see a sneak peak of what it can do

[@fredericlasnier7135]

Like Phil said , everything is still frozen right here in Canader , hey . I just love to see these roads you drive on , it is awsome ! More more more !

[@ReissStevens]

Looks like an epic journey. Can you do a video detailing costs and the trip you took? I’d love to do something similar in my gti.

[@xnbol]

here waiting for the response :)

[@hampshirephoto]

Yep!

[@ScottPC]

[@jeremybrowne944]

Been thinking of a similar trip so would be interested to know

[@dreamcruzer4743]

awesome scenery. how's the gas prices in the different countries? does it vary much?

[@philbradley9979]

Come to Canada man! The lakes are all frozen and you always have to pay first! 🤘

[@tredfxman]

Haha, even if the gas filler tanks are empty? 😄

[@MrAdz316]

Nice video mate, love the colour of the wrap too. Not sure about the green VW on the steering wheel though.

[@glenorr9183]

Has your water pump and thermostat went on the R yet?

[@internetuser1183]

mine went at 18k miles on brand new golf r mk7. not sure if it's still a common fault on the 7.5

[@TomsTechChannel]

I recommend buying or using a chest mount just to make the videos that little bit better. Great video though man 👍🏻

[@hampshirephoto]

Thanks!

[@mrheisenberg72]

U sound like mr jww... Are u from the same neck of the woods? Try the Scottish Highlands.. Nc500... Great drive 👍🏻

Pressure in my ears is raising while watching this

[@martinhaluska9976]

very nice green color :)

Was is a comfortable ride with the golf R?

[@tokollomphela5421]

Luke do you sell your HP shirts!? I really want one...

[@namroadmarker9378]

In Africa we don't go on a trip without a 4X4 car among the small cars. what if you get stuck? We don't take risks

[@tbmoney009]

What color is your golf? Is that factory paint?

[@leweee]

tbmoney009 it's a wrap

[@robertauld7431]

Great sound bud.

[@HDCFORLIFE]

How about exhaust drone? Did you have a lot? Is it annoying?

[@Boogersncome]

Sounds shit doesn't it.

[@Frank-1978]

@@Boogersncome changing up miles too early.

[@HDCFORLIFE]

I think that exhaust sounds awesome! I have the pre facelift version and thinking to get res delete. But every lad I ask have a different opinion...

[@Canadawerule]

Did Res delete on my facelift only drone if you keep it at 3300rpm. All other times no drone and sounds way meaner. I do 100km a day at 125kmh and no drone on HWY

[@Frank-1978]

@@HDCFORLIFE go for it. Cheap and sounds way better imo. I agree there is only a very narrow rev range that drones and if you slip.it into eco none whatsoever at any rev range. I did it and done regret it ✌🖒

[@johnyostler553]

drive my r in corners especially hairpins with speed in 2 to have exist speed

[@lastnamefirstname520]

10:40 this technique works on cars and girlfriend too

[@compfile31]

Didn't know you didn't pay first for fuel normally guess that's an american/swiss thing

[@sirchickenfood8561]

😁😁

[@harrymeakin9935]

You must be spending a bomb on your fuel over £1,000 a month you should do a video when you get back on the overview of the golf over the 2500 miles

[@svenboden68]

Why ohh why are u using the key instead of the starter button??????????????????????????????????????????? In my Golf R there isnt even a opening for the key?????

[@simodena]

Come in italy

[@aydencaldwell2472]

Don’t wanna know how much youse spent on fuel

[@alistaircushnie5551]

Probably saw more petrol stations than scenary....
