Got to work on our first R50 today, not bad.

Very nice, did you take it for a road test?

Sadly not, tempted but it belongs to someone very high up in VW and I value my life let alone my job..lol.

Not my thing but very nice still

Saw one of these in my local dealers. Fell in love with it straight away, but not the price tag:thumbdwn: I asked swmbo if i could sell the flat for one, surprisingly she said no. Very nice car though:)

Needs twenny fo's and lowering!

That's a big mother of car & an awesome engine.

just how big is it? it makes the 21's look small, and they make the brakes look weeny

5.0 V10 TDI DPF R50 5d Tip Auto

0-60 = 6.5s

Top speed = 146 mph

345bhp

850Nm torque

I want one!!!

Only thing is the fuel tank is 100l, so about £130 brimmed - nice

Is it a normal V10 TDI, just with tarty wheels and brakes, plus perhaps some other tarty bits? Just wondering what separates the R50 from the regular V10 TDI one.

Nice motor.

Nice motor.

The normal V10 TDI has 308bhp so the R50 has an extra 37 bhp and 50Nmof torque.

Probs just been tweaked, ie, remapped.

Oh, is that all? I hope to be at that power level with a 1.9 soon, but I think somehow 800Nm odd is out of reach....

Wonder what the mpg is? Must still have an average of around 25 at a guess, under normal driving?

Go on lad, I bet that engine is more than capable to reach 500bhp tho

That's B E A UTIFUL

Need to get some bigger brakes under those wheels

I seem to recall hearing that the R50 is more expensive, slower and thirstier than the Cayenne S. You'd have to really love diesel... (or, more justifiably, really hate Porsches )

Thats pretty pimp.

Needs a good dust, the interior is filthy :P

Sorry but that is gippin' imho 4x4s do nowt for me at all.

Word!!!
