Remember?

I think I'm posting this as much for myself as others !
Remember, this is a car that weighs circa 2 tons.
Easy to overdo it on a greasy road.
Similar in weight to a 70s Rolls Royce, which was a hefty car. Fortunately tyres and brakes have improved.

It's easy to forget that especially as it has more than enough oomph to suggest otherwise. It has the same 0 to 60 time as an Audi TT 3.2 V6 but not the same cornering capabilities.

While you are reminding yourself it weighs nearly 2 tonnes also remind yourself it's rear wheel drive especially if you have only ever driven front wheel drive cars.

Yes indeed its been at least 15 years since rwd. Blimey didn't realise it could rival the Audi in a straight line. Thanks for the caution.
