[News-Oxcart Network]

Before the advent of the turbo era, Volkswagen's performance in the civilian car market was the VR6 engine; and it was officially because of the VR6 engine that Volkswagen had developed for 8 years, there would be a later W8 engine and a W16 engine that Bugatti was proud of. It can be said that Volkswagen solved the problem of the small angle V engine, but also solved the structural problem of the double overhead camshaft, and finally the 8 years were not wasted, and the arrival of this engine also brought many classic models of German fans.

And today's protagonist is a second-generation golf, then there are iron fans who say that it can be related to VR6? The VR6 engine is only available in the third generation of golf. That's right bro, but now what age, we can modify the third generation VR6 engine to the second generation of golf cars, then there is this very sci-fi effect of the rear-drive wide-body golf.

When you see this wide-body MK2, at first glance there is no sense of déjà vu. That's right, the wide-body designer Kyzyl Saleem said he was inspired by the Peugeot 205 T16 EVO and Renault 5 Maxi Turbo, the crazy WRC Group B cars of the year. The low-key rear of the car was particularly fierce, which also made the WRC race at that time very enjoyable, but in the end, due to heavy casualties caused by excessive power, the WRC B group finally came to an end.

The WRC Group B era, though short-lived, left behind a number of classic rally models, including the Peugeot 205 T16

In order to build the Peugeot 205 T16 race car, 200 production models of the Peugeot 205 T16 had to be produced

Inspired by the WRC Group B race car, the front face shape is still the taste of the public, but a red decoration above the middle net makes it extremely conspicuous, and this red pinstripe will definitely remind you of the Volkswagen Spirit Totem GTI, and the cross headlights and black Hella fog lamp shade add a bit of mystery to this car. With the wide-body fenders on both sides looking backwards, the wide body of the WRC Group B race car and the design of the air intakes on both sides will give you a lot of pressure, and this guy is definitely not good to mess with.

After looking at the wide body thrown out of the rear wheel, you can see the big tail similar to the Peugeot 205 T16 car, this tail wing shape with this wide body really complements each other, I have to say that the designer of the B group car at that time was still aesthetically online. Looking directly behind, the shutter design under the big tail wing seems to be a bit cumbersome, but in fact, its role is more to provide heat dissipation for the VR6 engine inside.

The front engine compartment has been hollowed out

Since it comes to the VR6 engine, it has to be said that this car is not only modified with a wide-body kit, but more importantly, it also follows the layout of the WRC Group B racing car with a mid-mounted rear-drive, transplanting a 2.8L VR6 engine on a third-generation Golf into a second-generation Golf with a mid-engine.

In addition, it is worth saying that this mid-mounted second-generation golf, in order to transplant this SET of VR6 engines is painstaking, first bought a third-generation Golf VR6, and then the front axle was back-transplanted to the rear axle of the second-generation Golf, and then the VR6 engine was installed, because this operation led to a large number of modifications to the rear suspension, and after this operation, the mid-mounted second-generation Golf VR6 was basically completed.

However, before completion, it is still necessary to add some accessories to embellish it, of which the front 17 inches (7J, ET-15) and the back 19 inches (14J, ET42) LHR three-piece forged wheel shape also echoes the retro model, and the front wheel also has turbo Fan decoration, a trend and rally style collision taste; coupled with Air Lift pneumatic shock absorber to reduce the body, the kind of sci-fi and retro taste is very intriguing.

Finally, on the interior, two aluminum-alloy seats dedicated to the butt will let you know that being handsome will come at a price, while the CNC-cut gear lever is a particularly exciting accessory, and the bare mechanical texture is something that many boys can't stop, just like you bought a hair doll for a little girl. As for the roll cage, it is one of the necessary equipment for this magic model, I believe you know what I mean.
