Mk2 on 5th Gear last night.
« on: 23 September 2008, 07:54 »

So who saw the Golf on 5th Gear last night.....  I really want to win it!

On another note, I didn't think that pressed plates were allowed by the law? if so then the presenter who had his own white BMW M3 in the showroom should have thought about taking his off before showing on it on tv perhaps?

Nar don't think it was her one.
 
3 seconds was loads when you see how short the course was they drove it on, over a longer course and some nice long bits to get it moving I recon you'd see a massive difference to the standard one.

The guy in the studio was the one whos misses sold his lotus for 50p.

Golf was nice but am I the only who thinks it is madnes to run no rev limit, plus how the hell can it be kicking out 180bhp.

When I worked for them the most we ever saw with that spec was about 155 / 160 tops, also it is as Tiff pointed out all top end.
