No it’s an old diesel with no engine otherwise it would be in my yard, the fella has 2 of them in the same state. The tan interior with the dark green paint is a nice combo.

Oh so it’s a diesel version of the GTi. Pretty rare then.

**Edit, seems it's Ai slop lol

This looked very well cared for.

I do like an old Rover, most are still quite cheap to buy.

The tax disc is a nice touch! Wonder if it’s original?

This thing sounded awesome, a very lumpy idle.

They should have stayed there, hateful things.

Not so much spotted, more paid €18 to get into the museum but Pagani 😍

Not a true spot, but spent early Saturday driving with a few other Beetles:

The way the GT3’s move when pressing on is something else. The 992’s are big cars, but so agile.

Want.

991 3RS is probably still the most impressive car I've been in. Proper racecar with plates vibe

Two litre twin cam on carbs IIRC. Runs insanely rich at idle.

Was following this earlier; quite rare, I think?

This Lambo Huracan Sterrato just now. Picture from the internet.

This Mk2 Golf GTi just now. It turns out that it was on Car & Classic a couple of weeks ago.

Love Oak green Golf’s!

cat171 · Tuesday at 3:56 PM

Me too! I did say oh yes as it drove by lol!!! Tbh I wish I had room for it.

Matt Cup · Tuesday at 4:00 PM

Used to drive past one every day, slammed on bbs splits. Utter perfection 👌

daveski · Tuesday at 5:39 PM

So yeah...this.

Lovely! I hate the number plate though. That ruins it as it's a cheap NI one for £250 from the DVLA.

I looked at the driver when I pulled up next to him at the lights. I would say you’re bang on (the money 😉)

Gally · Thursday at 6:13 PM

Haha! I think someone wrote that in evo magazine or it was Jeremy Clarkson, spot the guy with the land cruiser and trailer at a track day, old money. 😂 No PCP Range Rover nonsense.

Saw one of these drive past me, in this colour. I didn't even think they were out yet! Looked pretty mega, but I don't know about all the red accents with the green as well...

KitsonRis · Friday at 9:46 PM

saw a red VW Corrado earlier. Driving a bit like a prick. But the noise this thing made made me chuckle. Couldn’t tell if it was a G60 or VR6 as it was going silly speed.

Scrooge · 2026-04-04T10:06:03+0100

I remember driving back from Colchester zoo once in the Porsche, a proper modded Corrado VR6 gave chase. I could not shake him for a good 15 miles. The bloke had his phone out the sunroof most of the time and when we got the traffic lights he was the spit of Heavy D from storage wars. The bloke was hyped as f**k bouncing around in his chair and hollering. My wife was not impressed.

Bearing in mind the Porsche used to hit 180 for fun I’d say it’s one of the quickest cars I’ve had a play with 😂
