fooking mental.

This lowly MK1 could only achieve a meagre 189 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lp_-tEa-J1E&feature=player_embedded
That was on a road though with normal wheel/tyres!

:grin: :grin: :grin: yep, even i have been at an indicated 192mph  :evil:

I have a satnav proven 789mph* on the autobahn out of Berlin in a stock mk5 2.5 Di Transit... Beat that... :wink:
















*Satnav had a "moment" and thought it was somewhere else then rushed to catch up.

You don't own a Mk2, you support it.

I can get to 40 quite comfortably thank you.  :grin:

Seriously though, as cool as that MK3 is going in a straight line, look at the rear spoiler, I thought it was a jumbo jet or something at first.

So when you banging a turbo kit on yours to make it 800bhp?

Perfect for getting the shopping, quickly.

So if you bought 2 that'd be 1800hp? Could compete in the Pikes Peak with that :cool:
