Wee bit of a play on way to work...
Coming off slip road onto small stretch of dual carriageway..
I was doing about 35 in 3rd gear (should have been in 2nd really)
I floored it in 3rd at 35 and so did guy behind me, he stayed with me all the way from 35-95 before we had to brake...
I would have had a better start if I was in 2nd at the time and not 3rd but didn't think this car that was behind me with roof bars was going to go for it..
Seen the badge when we got to roundabout
Bora V6 4motion
Quite impressed...Looks nice too...

a mate of mine had one, a really nice car, had full recarro leather, sat nav, he put hes on the rolling road, as a standard car and only got about 190bhp, dont know if having 19" alloys on at the time had anything to do with it tho
