maybe real, but those shots look very CG.
either way i'd maybe consider swapping my golf for it. (they'd obviously have to give me some money too) :laugh:

:) i like the way they say the engine's midship because it improves handling...that is obviously true, but mainly because it wouldnt fit under the bonnet!!!! :)

Bring it on!
If they put this into production, we'd all be in trouble, I for one have trouble watching the road when I catch a glimpse of an R32, so what would this do?  :sick:
Bring VW right into the 21st century!!!  :grin:

Those photos on the MSN review are just the normal publicity shots that are on other sites, so nothing new there. And it's not really a review is it, they haven't driven it.

It would be more interesting if someone did test drive it (hands up anyone?), looks awesome though.

Isn't that the same engine as the Bugatti? Or a Lambo ?

We should write to Topgear and ask the boys to get the rookie STIG to test it round the track!!!
