got my new g40!

Featured Replies

yeah mine is 194bhp on a standard bottom end but that's with a k03 turbo instead of the g-lader. I've seen a g40 with the G-Lader make 190bhp but with a 1341cc bottom end. I've seen a g40 with standard bottom end and the g-lader make 170bhp before (although it was at Stealth's rolling road which generally gives higher numbers than most seem to).

This is the white one that was outside Worcester? with the blowing exhaust. Was going to look myself but the advert was incorrect being advertised with 114k but this things has had clocks changed possibly as i remember having a picture of it on the wall of my first house when Karen Richardson owned it and it had done 130k then.

She sold it to a vag technichian who removed and rebuilt engine and then had the car resprayed again in white.

Over the years its had some serious cash spent on it, when KR owned it, it was sweat.

was owned by carol richardson then karen andrews (who had it featured in vwmotoring)

is it the BNP one youve bought jack? lol

Dont think it's that one Neil.

if it is 171 bhp, should be doing better than 14.9 quarters!

looks a tidy one that!

I'll say, you'll run low 14s with that power in a Mk2 Golf with full interior. Could well be traction issues with the G40 though :lol:

dont forget the long ass reaction time... so its low 14s really..

One good looking sleeper you got there...

reaction doesn't count to your time, timing only starts once you break the bim.

ahhh.

btw looks like you have a 3 legged dog :lol:

Yeah I was doing 14.5's at springfest and I dont think mine has 170bhp.

Looks good though, paint looks nice.

Not keen on where the side repeaters have been moved to but it looks real nice otherwise.

Paint work looks great. What sort of spec does it have to get 170bhp?

Daryl
