Mk2 VR6 Turbo v Ferrari F360, Audi S4 and Supra T88

Fast forward this Youtube clip to around the 3m 10s mark for a perfect demonstration of the ability of aftermarket tuners. Stare open mouthed at how utterly bonkers fast the Mk2 Haldex equipped motor pulls away from a Ferarri already doing around 70mph. Nuts? Just get watching.

What happens when a group of Germany's premier tuning maestros get together for a quiet saturday night out on the autobahn? And if you had to choose between a Ferrari F360. Toyota Supra with a T88 turbo, tuned Audi S4, or.... a Mk2 Golf with a VR6 turbo engine and a Haldex 4WD system where would your money go? Having heard the tinny, nay.. rattly Italian V8 we'd discount the overrated exotica and concentrate firmly on the aftermarket tuned specialist vehicles. But then that's just us. Watch this stonking video at around the 3m 10sec mark and you'll soon be able to make your own minds up. Something tells us we already know what the answer will be. If you ever needed some inspiration to get that project car finished off, giant killing performance is a very good motivator. Enjoy.

GOLF+ SEPTEMBER 2008-08-12

The UK's Grounded Crew graces our hallowed cover once more with Jason Buckley's stunning 2.0L 16V Mk1 taking pride of place. The ride actually has its historical roots connected well back to GOLF+ in the day, so it was our pleasure to pay homage to on of the finer UK Mk1 to hit the scene this year. Top stuff Jason!

Also inside, we pay tribute to one of the great Mk2s of the modern Dub era - Simon Sweetland's gem of a car, not unfortunately parted put and 'moved on over to the other side'. With his next awesome project to come, be check out his beloved Mk2 in the meantime, one last time.
