do not under estimate these cars

Me and my mate (s3) raced our mates VR6 and they are a quick car and once over 100+ they really get into their stride

Not a slow car

My mate has the exact same colour as the one posted above

Once rolling they are yeah. Statistically, they're about the same as a 2.0 Corsa for the most part.
