No way would I buy one but I would salute some one mental enough that did. I actually like it.

Looks more like a Fiat 500 to me...

I'd drive it. In the dark, in an isolated area

A great car perhaps, but the looks are a trifle embarrassing

I was expecting it to be around maybe £5k max
Can't believe someone paid £45k, crazy money.

19 grand, jesus, you can get something decent for that, never felt the love for the Mk4 Golf R32, always saw it as a Subaru/Evo for people who like the idea of those cars but find them a little working class, but kind of missed the point in that it didn't go or handle as well as those cars.

45 grand and keep fit windows?

And another, "on another note", colours can't be bright and pastel.
Ah sorry, didn't know that. Makes sense when you think about it! Every day a school day... Tweaked it now.

Cheers,


Matt

Push it out on the road and set fire to it.
Beetles are cars you buy for your girlfriend, I don't car how fast this one is!

I bloody love them. A rare oddity..hence the price. Worth it IMO!

Makes the Clio V6 look even more of a bargain than it is, mind.

Wow Porsche & Beetle comparisons, not seen that before.rofl

I like them, they have race pedigree more than most road cars. Wouldn't own one though, but I can see the appeal. Just like the Audi A1 quattro it's a limited appeal thing.

Didn't Herr Schumacher have one (or was given one by VAG to raise the cars profile)?

I think this is really cool, the fact it is rare and unusual appeals to me.

I would say that though....
