The crazy W12 Golf GTi!!

Post

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the iconic Golf, VW went nuts and fitted bits and pieces of the R8, RS4(front brakes), Gallardo(rear axle) and the engine from the monstrous Conti GT-the W12 with twin turbos and 650bhp!! Damn things overheats as soon it gets going in the Golf W12 650. Jeremy said he disagrees with it, but I think its bloody awesome! The mad wheel arches and the radical rear(for engine cooling) looks spectacular.

Yeah, the Clio V6 is one helluva hatch. Corners like a leech , and then theres its longitudinal stability, brilliant. It just doesnt spin!
