Obviously that was a closed section of private road or track Damian otherwise the NSL applies in the Brecon Beacons thus negating any power advantage…
Those £50k+ über hatches are generally just peacocking really. Granted some are owned by well healed enthusiasts who do trackdays and trans-Europe road trips via Autobahns, but not many I doubt. There are still performance “bargains” to be had in the form of Fiesta ST’s and i20N’s, electric Minis (ok top speed might hinder the Mini a bit in the derestricted Brecon Beacons) and even the forthcoming Polo GTI. But I guess if you wear your designer sunglasses on the top of your head then those will be a little lacking in the car park Top Trumps.
It’s all gone a bit mad for me. I’ve definitely had my last Golf and I wasn’t particularly enamoured at paying £33k for it! I’d just like a nice little island, a drone to bring my food over and a few torpedos to shoot at A45S owners that bring their jet-skis anywhere near my shores…
