That's a bit hard for me to believe, andy.
A car needs at least 50% more power before being able to run with a VW - and you've got just under 200kw.
From my experience on this forum, a VW 74kw 1.6 outruns a 141kw RSI ... a 110kw VW PGTI outruns a 169kw T5 .... so a 147kw VW GTI would take a 200+kw car to beat it. The GTI6 you'd be looking at 220kw to keep up ...

He never did - but seriously, he'd take me with times like these. The guys on the ST forum are chuffed when they get a sub 15.
He's got a VW 110kw/220nm and I've only got a Volvo 185kw/400nm ....
Yeah, i was being polite with my question about the times....(i doubted whether the car was std)
So jk? why not just line ur car up with dolby's and get it over with? even have multiple runs to get a true reflection?

I think they need a room more than they need a race. There seems to be a lot of pent up tension.

Lol, I thought you were serious for a minute there! I've been working hard today so missed all the banter until now!
I think we should get a road than a room, I'll definitely watch!

ok, thanks...so anything between R210-240k is good value for a T5 (2008 model)....what if I mentioned a 2010 T5 Manual, stock standard, 0km on the clock (yes, brand new), pre-facelift....R275 000.

Yea - I decided to pay a premium cause it was loaded (19", Dynaudio, iPod, USB, Xenon, cruise control, auto wipers, anti dazzle mirrors, sunroof, rear armrest, hard load cover etc) - otherwise R220ish.
What does a stock one come with? R Design?
