Other interesting cars you own

Hi, I’ve recently purchased my first VW, a 2019 GTI performance pack but here’s my other car


Cheers Jason

I just had a crisis!

My Mk5 R32 which I'll shortly be selling, to fund mods on the GTI.

Saw one exactly like this today.

You’re not a middle aged woman who lives near stourbridge, are you?

Not unless I’m having a significant out of body experience.  I’ve not seen another on the road myself in months!  I’ll check the garage tomorrow.   If it’s missing I’ll be on my way to Stourbridge..

I did coincidentally buy my previous Bora PD130 from Stourbridge..

Haha, as I drove past i was a bit surprised to see who was driving.

Nice car. Always liked these mk1s. Not so keen on the mk2s.

Totally different driving experience, but great fun anyway!

Hi Guys
Thought this might be interesting to see what other cars  people have as toys.
 Ive got a 205CTI which is 32 years old now!

I will always remember seeing a guy with one of these near where I live. It had been tuned to hell and back, I'm guessing 500bhp. He flew down the road and stopped as he needed to reverse to let cars through due to other parked cars. He reversed it so violently that his wheels were spinning in "reverse" but gripping hard for a good 20 metres in summer weather. The engine must have been bolted directly to the chassis as there was zero wheel hop, or it was an old rally car or something. Either way it was insane!

Family wagon is an XC90 hybrid. Hardly ‘interesting’ but the 2litre 4-pot is both turbocharged and supercharged with 310 bhp, and the electric motor adds another 97 bhp.

400+ bhp and 0-60 in 5 seconds in a 2.5tonne 7-seater is what makes it interesting! 

I bought the golf to replace a 997.2 911 (summer car) and Kia Rio (winter car) as the 911 was barely being used and seemed wasted having all that cash just sitting in the garage, plus the kids have got too big for the back. 

Got to say - in a straight line the Golf is probably quicker than the 911, just no fun in the twisties.

Talking of fast heavy cars - I was lucky enough to test drive the new Aston DBX 707. Launching a 2 tonne plus car with 707bhp in 3 seconds was a very bizarre feeling. The launch control is a AMG system and it is violent! Apparently, Aston have done a 2.95 to 60mph with one person in the car. Very bizarre feeling and left me pretty speechless  Sadly, this was £242,000 out of my price range  And no I wasn't tyre kicking technically, a family member owns loads of Astons so we are allowed to go to all of the unveilings and test drive all the cars.
