Well the golf on the second video had 367hp, so that acceleration is more than achievable  :smiley:

I'm going to apologise now for this rant, but it's always a typical answer!

Who gives a flying pig sh!t how much it costs, it's still a hell of a lot cheaper then buying a Mk5 GTi!!

Rant over!

It's an awesome machine and the sound on the second one...OMG!! But yeah it does cost a fair few bob! lol  :grin:
