When I have time to post, I really have time to post, lol
Ok, this car really is brutal.
240HP, but it's really hard to get them on the road.
Comparrison with the others you ask?
Golf GTI is to civilised, too calm, too gentle
The Seat leon FR and I doubt the cupra will be any different character wise... anyway, the FR is a bit too nice, it goes well, bit it's not a hooligan...
The focus ST? Well, the ST really is the best of both worlds, the hooligans and the angles....and it has a glorious sound...and engine..
The car that comes closest to the OPC just by talking character is the Megane RS. It's a bit mental, but this one is a bit mental and then some...
If you hit the gas in mid corner ever so gently, if the surface isn't really perfect (and it never is), it will do huuuge undeersteers....I must say we had bad and cold weather for a whole week, so the car didn't have the time to present itself in the best light...
the amount of power is very impressive and the car is stable in corners, it really grips well, but only if drive smartly...if not, you've got a blue lightning in your hands faster than you could say "oh sh..."
The seats are amazing, they hold the body in place better than any car in it's class. They are even too tight in the leg area (or I'm really getting fat)
The shoulder part also stays in place,which is often a problem in hot hatches, but in this car you can really count on the seats for the propper support.
Ths turbo whistless all the time, the tires are schreeching all the time, people are looking at you all the time, you're visiting petrol stations all the time and no matter what you're smilling all the time...
I quite liked this car, because it's a rebell and there's a lack of those latley...
About the photos, man were these tough to do. The weather was really sucking ass BIG time. Rain almost all the time, plus I had to assist the camera guy all the time, with the light and so on. And drive behind them from location to location during the shoot of the vid in a Volkswagen transporter...and I had to (or at least I tried) do good shots....
Taking the circumstances into concideration the photos are good, but I could do better, damn the baaaaad light, the fog, the rain, the cold and damn the volkswagen van....lol
Anyway, I also threw in a few off topic photos to liven things up a bit...
Hope you like what you see
oh I love this road...
this was probably god telling us we should get the hell out of there
