You need one of those mini cams that were going round the net few months ago and cable tie it to the wheel

Whats the weight difference between the hatch and the van??

Mate has a VXR rep Sportive van with a tuning box and it goes like fuck.

Quicker than 182/CTR and is alot quicker than the 330d it replaced.

I actually love the way mine drives too. For everyday road driving it's perfect.

Does look nippy but can't beat the noise and how a petrol car drives.

What spec are you running? That looks really quick, I dunno if it's just my imagination but it seems quicker than my vRS which is a bit gutting.

I'll try and get a similar video to compare when it's done next week sometime.
