For 2016 we decided to build something a little different, well.. for us that is anyway.

A VW Golf isn't exactly the typical "Mode" demo car but the new MK7 platform is just so much more impressive than what many non-VW enthusiasts out there may think. With a 0-100km/h time of just 5.0 seconds in standard form, it's almost on par with an Audi RS4 Avant, so it's not too bad out of the box. But, the Golf R has a turbo attached to it, a dual-clutch gearbox and a few hundred kilos less fat than the RS4. The unlock-able potential of this car is just mind blowing! Free up some restrictions, add some boost and we have got this little hatchback producing 380hp, and the 0-100km/h time down to a staggering 3.4 seconds!

Yes, you read that right, 3.4 seconds, that's on par with a brand new Audi R8 V10 and a few hundredths of a second faster than a Lamborghini Gallardo! Can you say "Value for money?"
