Vagabond Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 R brothers....Lets not forget the famous track test on top gear where the stig took the R onto a fantastic lap time of 1.30.4. putting the bmw into 2nd place with a time of 1.31.9. If only we could see a head to head between the R and the S3! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Agreed I would like to see a new one, there was one about 3 weeks ago in Germany and the S3 was 1.5 seconds faster, the S3 was 2 second faster in this one. R32 VS S3 But your car is better according to Autoexpress so game on to the R32. AZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxyboy Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 does anyone know the official time for a r32 to 100? there does seem a rather large difference there... i think i may start an action group if it really is that slow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zharca Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Hi, lots of people have recorded properly timed R32 1/4-miles at just over 14 secs with terminal speeds at 97-99, so I can't believe the last few Mph take 3 secs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Be slightly wary of the Road & Track times though - I thought they were meant to be somewhat on the generous side (as a norm! - all around one passenger or two, full or half tank etc etc).
