Thanks in no small part to the GTI's XDS traction system the FWD car goes from 0 - 100m/h in 5.8 seconds and achieves a 263km/h (163mph) top speed. The tuner reckons it is quite a drivable car even on an everyday basis and it returns a good average fuel consumption figure.

MR Car Design also took care of stopping power by using a €2,999 Stoptech high performance brake system with 4-piston calipers and slotted brake discs as well as a brake caliper air vent plug.
