Well, im inclined to agree with Poverty.

This car easily has a low 12 second 1/4mile time.

Keith left the Racelogic performance box in the car so we went and tried a 0-60.

0-60 in 4.1seconds  :surprised: :surprised: :surprised:

But  that was from a carriageway layby with lock on the wheel to get out! But most importantly that was with 3 people and full leathger interior.  And Mike will back me up, it was a slight incline as well.


This car has a sub 4second 0-60 sprint im 100% certain of it.

I always said id take a Scirocco R over a Golf R.  I think this has changed my mind.

Some strange understeer/oversteer characteristics though!!

Thought id boot it around a corner car started to understeer alot.  reduced the throttle, straightened the steering wheel then it power slid around the bend.  Wasnt expecting it to be honest.  Expected alot more initial grip.

Was easy to catch though once it happened

Roads greasy at the moment? Granted I was never more than 2 up whenI was driving that car.

Take it into a empty carpark, do some sharp turns, apply the brakes and watch it swing around like a go kart  :signLOL:
