The word is that the W12 GTI is awful to drive. Shame if it's true.

That's what I read in the TG mag.
It is only a concept though.
If VW were to do a production model it would be completely revised :wink:
-
i wonder if they have a normal GTi alongside it on the show aswell??

Fingers crossed :smiley:

Glad Topgear is back :kiss:
Hopefully we will get new episodes in SA too.
IMO Topgear loves the GTI. Clarkson raves about it and any excuse for them to use it they do.
Bravo to Topgear :smiley:
-
:shocked: just to remind you all 8pm tonight, and doing a review on the w12 :laugh:
-
It will be recorded for posterity if it is a good episode :cool:
-

Read review of W12 on evo.co.uk.. apparently it is hardly drivable at all, but it is a project car, so no big deal
Why would they mention Ed30? It's no big change from GTI.. unless you remap it

*faints* :shocked:
Didnt they do the edition30 a while back anyway?
The W12 was a bit of a dog weren't it? It seems as though VW have really just cobbled it together. I know its only a "project" car but even so... they still shouldn't have rushed it through.

W12 was made just to show to GTI crowd at the GTI meeting in Austria. So all kudos to VW

I think Phil was referring to the fact that Jezza said that VW had forgotten to do something for the GTI's 30th, when in actual fact they had done the ED30. :smug:
-
exactly hurdy :smiley:
-
i watched it... not nice at all... back end looked like poo tbh :sick:
-
i think it looked awesome!!! needs to be 4wd though!! :laugh:

Oh, I see. Misunderstanding on my part then. I do not watch TV (I do not get Top Gear anyway)

and nowt wrong with your front end nicki!! :wink:
-
That car looks UNFRINKINBELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!
Am I right in saying they slapped V6 engines together to get the W12?
-
as mentioned ages ago, it looks like a max power Clio V6 gone wong.... :sick:
Great engine, wheels look good and the colour is right for the car....but not much else going for it.

WHAT!!! I TOTALY DISAGREE!!!! it looks stunning, and the only resemblence to a clio v6 is the vents in which it needs to cool down its w12 engine, also at night the red grill glows!!
-
glowing red grill, well I missed that (thankfully!)
I think that should be kept to KITT :laugh:

Looks far better than a standard Mk5! :smug:

Normally this sort of banter is reserved for the chat-nonsense room.......... :evil: :evil:
-
sorry, it had to be said, i always give someone a compliment when its due :rolleyes: sorry Nicki
or maybe you prefer the T.T rug look!! :laugh: shall i pose like nicki and see if i get any kind comments??? lol
-
personally i think it looked a bit to chavvy and getting slated in the 1st show of the new series of top gear isnt good either. It was dismissed rather quickly
