I doubt VW had anything to do with that car at all by the looks of it, I think it was built by a team for Swedish touring cars.. It would however be nice to see a factory VW presence in WTCC

Yep same as the AON Focus and the Dynamics Civic.

I think its great for the sport to get a VW back in the public eye and would agree with jonny about VW having nothing to do with it.  I never miss the BTCC as I think its what motorsport is all about.  Dont get me wrong im also a massive F1, rally etc fan but nothing has me on the edge of my seat more that the goings on of the BTCC.

P.S im still supporting Plato FTMFW !

Been following them over on btcc.net - car is nearly built just waiting for the brakes finishing.

Excellent build blog on their website.

Had a bit of a chuckle at this also

Shame about those arches!!  :surprised:
+1. I actually like the colour scheme.

As for the buttons, KITT had everything except the missile launcher and machine guns.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

The brake set up is by Alcon.
