£50 Super VW Golf Beat Modern Day F1 card

June 12, 2009 · 1 Comment

I was thinking of getting a VW Golf to replace my old Toyota just two days ago. Then, I saw this today!

Andy Waite, 42, of Fordham, who bought a VW Mk 1 Golf for £50 in 1979, has modified his 30 year-old car to beat a modern day £1m supercar. Andy spent around £60,000 on modifications, installing a custom-built turbocharged engine that scorches his car from 0-60mph in just 2.36 seconds. Yes, even faster than the Veyron by a tenth of a second.
