R32d today....

Having a bit of a blast along some country roads late this afternoon in my mk1 (once it was dry again !) having overtaken about 6 sunday drivers (Hey, it's saturday!) when I notice a bright blue car doing the same thing about 4 cars behind...

3 cars behind...

2 cars behind...

Erm... on my tail now

Managed to keep him behind me for another couple of miles and then he blatted past me at atleast 80mph (considering this was a fairly twistly b-road). Stayed with him for another 3 miles before my brakes started to fade.

Obviously the R in R32 stands for 'respect'. Not a bad bit of driving Mr HF53xxx heading towards Hastings on the B2086!

Cheers,

Drew.

what engine have you got in yours drew?

tim

 

Bog standard mk1 1.8. Latest rolling road gave me a generous 120bhp though.

Cheers,

Drew.

 

16v conversion Drew?

 

For shame Drew, for shame. [:^(]

 

Another garage and a 400 a month payrise I think.

Cheers,

Drew.

is EVERYONE getting an R32 at the moment....?

xx

jen.

 

Common as muck now, gonna turn out to be the VW equivalent of the XR3i with a RST bodykit.

 

An R32 could leave my Mk2 16v for dead I`m sure but I`m more than happy with my car.

Wouldnt really want an R32 TBH ... <waits for abuse>

I`d rather have the Oettinger tuned Mk4 that my local dealer has on the forecourt

 

Not everyone,just most people

 

They're not as common as a Mk 2 yet though

 

where's the handbag icon?

 

nah...in 10 years we'll be lookin at them like we do at the mkIII vr6 now.

 

slow,cumbersome and heavy??

<only joking R32 peeps>

 

LOL @ this thread

Didnt realise there were so many Green Eyed Monsters here

 

aarrghh,gonna have to get the mk1 out tommorrow and go find 1 of these r32's you speak of.

 

Ummm, a bit of baiting is always fun in the MK1 !! (But it's wet outside so it will have to wait till summer !!) [:^(]

 

Did someone say wet? We like wet in R32's
