    Mk2 Video spanking a Clubman

    I read about this car about 4 years ago, is a 20vt with about 450hp and a quaife seqential gearbox like the ones I often rave about. The guy driving is about 60years old......

    They're widely known as clubmans, as there are several different makes and models including caterham and "lotus super 7" being the original. The one in this video could be any make.

    Seems people are more excited about the clubman than the golf which is kickin it's butt

    Doesn't the Superlight have a Rover 1.8 litre K-series in it? I think the guy driving the Superlight is a member of the Club GTI forums (going on his youtube username).

    I'd love the Golf though!!!

    Maurice is probably closer to 70 to be fair.

    I have been at Castle Combe on track and spectating when he has been there. He used to have a well mental 16V mk1 before fitting a 20valve in it. Then for comfort I guess he did a mk2.

    Must be a real downer having spent 40 grand on an Exige or superlight to get battered by a std looking 1990 Golf.
