I remember seeing quite a few of these around Las Palmas. An orange one with a full cage, door bars the lot. Must have seen at least 4.
Weren’t these very cool but ultimately crap to drive

It was basically a Mk4 Golf R32 underneath. I think the consensus was that it wasn't fast or special enough for what it cost new.
I guess you could make it a bit better now as there are plenty of mods for the R32 that should fit the beetle too?

The Mk4 Golf R32 was basically a Beetle RSi underneath - the Beetle preceded it, didn't it?

You need to go on a Golf forum and state that

Lets be honest, no-one needs to go on a Golf forum.
Ever.
Do they not like it when they're told that, then?

Is that because I'm wrong, or because Golf nuts are....
...well, they're interesting. Remember, I worked with Unzippy for long enough.
