Photoshoot, Golf GT, Punto Sport

[komotar]

Ok, just a few pics of two fun red cars...

The Golf has the 1,4 , 170 HP engine, which pulls INCREDIBLY well a thigher speeds. I was very pleased in the above 130 acceleration. The car really goes well, drives well and is such a sleeper.

I also had too much time on my hands, so I picked up a friend and we taped a small digital camera to the front of the car and wen't for a quick fast ride...the wind noise is huuge, but it still turned out ok...it's only 11mb

and no, I don't know, what the yellow thingy is doing on the screen...

The punto has the 130 hp diesel engine. Imo, it didn't show them properly, and if the car stuck to the road well, the driver sure didn't feel that. It's amazing, how fiat can make a VERY cool looking small sports car that provides almost no information to the driver trought the steering wheel. The thing is just horrible. The car drives very well, without the drive rknowing it, lol. The steering is too light. Too bad. Everything else is OK! Well, the build quality is till down on the germans, and the materials used also, but with these looks, who cares....

great pics you made at the quarry!! I love them. The pics with the GT sign made out of bricks is a cool idea :D


Nice vid! But too bad the wind noise is becoming louder as the engine note at higher speeds. Did you mount the camera on the car with a suction mount?

[ARMAN]

Nice pics Cyril, your friend like to be on camera? :mrgreen: how did you mount it on the car btw?

[komotar]

Nice pics Cyril, your friend like to be on camera? :mrgreen: how did you mount it on the car btw?

yes, my friend's a goofball, lol

well, the camera is really thin so we just used an old shoe lace and a bit of duck tape...I wish I could take a photo of it, but the camera was taped, lol :wink:

[ARMAN]

LMAO :lol: I was waitnig it would be some more sofisticated support :mrgreen: well did the job anyway :)

[TopGearNL]

They look like really nice cars, also to drive! 8)

Great shots, love the angles!! The GT writing in bricks is well though off! :mrgreen:

[chest3r]

The GT and GTi are my favorite Golf V versions. The only ones I would buy, actually.

That Fiat looks pretty cool, but that interior is a bit poor. I rather prefer other models. 8)

[sentra_dude]

Very cool shots komotar, thanks for sharing, and interesting to read about these cars. I like the "GT" made of bricks, very cool. 8) :D

[TT]

Top photography as always! I love the pics of the Punto on the bridge!

[MidEngine4Life]

LOL, as Arman, I was thinking you were using a pro mount. But some duck tape can to the trick as well :lol:
