ditto. nothing else quite like it.

bigger, faster cars aren't as much fun either. probably something to do with the fact the polo chassis was originally designed to take about 60bhp & then they decided to put 113bhp through it. lots more if it's been fettled as well.

Hi all, popped over from uk-mkiv's.net (Big thanx to Josh 8). I ran a G40 for 6 years and it was the most fun I ever had in a car.

You will love it. Once you get used to it get it chipped and pulley'd (if it's not been done already :P and go take on a few porkers :shock:

I agree, I've had my G40 for 3 hours and it is mental. And that's after driving the CTR!
:shock:
