Just because I can, and there is SO much negativity on here with the engines ect , here are a couple of vids of what I do with mine at every oppertuninty, and it still hasn't broken yet..... I love this car, it makes up my social life with the meets and the track days, and it has NEVER let me down (neither did my old CAVE car in 50k, I will post my czech drag race for that!)

 

chasing the "brisk rover" at how fast (bedford autodrome ) last year .....

 

 

the green hell! (it brightens up after a minute or so...)

 

 

set to "for whom the bell tolls" because it started to rain and we immediatly had an accident! bloody hell the nuburgring is scary in the wet! lol

 

 

hell yeah! (looking forward to this year )

 

 

 

oh, the standard CTHE and 2 reampped CAVE's

 

 

and not to forget my old TMC'd CAVE , fond memories

 

 

enjoy your car people, I LOVE mine , and am really looking forward to this years track season, castle coombe, how fast, santa pod, the national meet , nurburgring, and however many more I can afford!

Good one Dave :clap: 

Well said Dave totally agree with the positivity about the vrs [emoji106]looking forward to seeing the Phantom at the pod.

I love mine as well.nice positive comments.

As a mk2 Tdi owner all I can say is Id love one but saying that Id also love if they brought back the vRS Tdi in a mk3

there are rumours!

Just make your own Mk2 vRS TDi........simples

I think the main reason yours hasn't had any issues Dave, is it's been driven properly from day 1.

 

Czech drag race from a better angle, before we got booted off by the Police.

I love mine.

Had it out during the night for a 160 mile run on wonderful empty roads with potholes already repaired,

& in temperatures between -1*oC - -3*oC and it was at its very best, running 102 ron fuel & all new consumables.

 

Looking forward to taking it again tonight, but it might be snowy so on a different route required.

Although I've moved on, I still do look at old pictures, watch old videos and reminisce over fond memories of mine.

 

Gosh I do miss it and it's faults. Cracking car.

 

I miss my MK2 VRS more than I have ever missed my MK1 VRS.

 

Cracking post Dave, we needed something like this on here after numerous negative threads!

That's the plan

That's the plan

Just like mine

would have another one in a heart beat. Such a great package!

 

Who won that drag race above? Looked pretty close!

Just like mine

Nice but older wheels and rallye green

Gotta love 'lil CAVE vRS smoking both cars from the line ! Hell Yeah!!

AND, as you know Dave CTHE is a more powerful powerplant

ahh well my CAVE there was running a TMC box and 199 bhp on 99 fuel, in that race it had 102RON in it too

 

I smoked the two more powerful cars to about 90 mph, then Jason just stormed past like I was stood still , then at 127mph, the more areodynamic mark I octy vRS came past me...

 

so in the end I lost! pmsl!

and to show the versitility too, today I have done 205 miles of driving instruction, without any issues, mostly town, slow stuff, manouvers ect , and still managed 38 mpg

38mpg? You need to tell your pupils they aren't trying hard enough ;-)

Meh, you did not lose! on the road and most (short) tracks you are still a winner!

Sorry for bumping a 3 year old thread, but I just came back to these forums after a long break. My love for this car has just been rekindled now that roads are mostly snow and ice free again, and I'm itching to get summer wheels back on and giving it a good thrashing on some back roads. These videos were great. Man, now I want to get to modding..

how odd, haven't been on the mk2 forums for ages, and one of my old threads pops up! lol.... Good on ya Lars, would have bought my mk2 estate back last year if I could have found it, bought an alfa instead!
