ZitatAlles anzeigenThe world's first racing development of the new Volkswagen Golf was unveiled today (Mon) by Volkswagen Racing UK.
The wraps came off the Golf Mk V - which is destined for a track career in one of the UK's best supported championships, the Volkswagen Racing Cup - at the Milton Keynes headquarters of Volkswagen UK. Paul Willis, Director of Volkswagen Passenger Cars UK, and Andrew Coombe, head of marketing, performed the unveiling.
Set to make its race debut early next month, the new car is not only the first racing Mk V Golf but is also the first Volkswagen to make its motorsport debut in diesel form. Under the bonnet is a 2-litre, 16-valve TDI powerplant developing 210 PS.
Volkswagen Racing UK has made very few changes to the standard Golf's specification; a limited-slip differential has been adopted and larger front brakes fitted as well as fully adjustable KW suspension. Most of the car's performance boost has come as the result of redefined engine mapping by Superchips and a Milltek racing exhaust system.
"We have deliberately kept the car as close to showroom specification as possible," added Roach, "to underline the point that the new Golf is a formidable proposition even in road trim."
