This orange Scirocco monster will cause some raised eye-brows this very day at the Tuner Grand Prix. In spite of having front-wheel-drive the 450 horsepower Mathilda GT-R1 stands a good chance of being a contender at Hockenheim.
The Scirocco blows a fresh wind. The Tuning firm CSR Automotive has given the ‘peoples’ coupé’ a new body-kit and king-size wheels from Schmidt Revolution.
It is 65 years after the first appearance of the VW ‘Bulli’ mini-bus and the Caddy range is thirty years old. Now Volkswagen have opened a dedicated facility in the city of Hannover where classics from the commercial vehicles division can be comprehensively and professionally restored.
The thirty-fifth birthday of the Golf GTI is good cause for celebration and Volkswagen have come up with a special way of marking the occasion. They are making a return to the ‘Green Hell’ of the Nürburgring with a monster, extra-wide Golf. And the Golf24 is meant to win the 24 hour race.
Last autumn the Golf R20 by Rothe Motorsport impressed us with its agility in the corners and its impressive lap times. Now the tuner has pepped up one of these cars just a bit more. We were present at the Hockenheim Ring when the Golf R20 'Gedlich Edition' was put through its paces.
