Don't think it's an RS4 engine, it will be a Rothe or HPA twin turbo R32. 550HP

While searching for further info on that mad golf came across this!

We also have a loosely translated version of the German press releaes below, but what we do know is this:
- VW claims a top speed of 202 mph
- 6.0l W12 12-cylinder twin-turbocharged engine mounted in the back seat of the GTI
- 650hp and 553 lb-ft. of torque (!)
- with the flared fenders the car sits over 6 feet wide and only 4.6 feet tall
- 19" wheels with 295 rear rubber and 235 front rubber
- the fenders are flared 3.15" at the rear

Not so keen on those wheels but by God that's a nice looking Golf - and performing by the looks of the spec!!
Loved the comment at the end 'I've gotta have a supercharger on this, I'm not 'avin' that!'
hahaha
Sell it and buy a car mate
