Is this getting anyone else fully erect? I've been shopping around for Golf R but this chav chariot has really got me thinking.

Certainly an interesting proposition. Can't wait to hear some real world reviews.

I saw these late last year and thought about getting one whilst waiting for my 6. I thought I could just walk into a dealership and buy one (with all the good options ticked it only added 4k to the price, bargain!). My thoughts were that it wouldn't lose a lot of money. I was a little dissapointed when I realised they were not available yet.

Sounds like the hype is working to their favour. I'm still bemused that a big company has actually added a "drift mode" to a production car, VW would never do that. Ballsy.

No, you're confusing it with "leave the autobahn backwards mode". Shame on you.
