Just got myself a limestone grey gtd 5 door fantastic thing 2014 model so £20 tax 125k miles drives superbly
Great Video Mike. This car is simply the best compromise all round. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the super comment. More to come :)
Was waiting for a video! And it delivered nicely.
Thank you. I think you need a golf R next mate.
You'd love it.
Also for the next video, I think it would be cool if you had a dual set up or camera facing towards you as you speak for a few shots, i believe it would help grow the channel even more. Great upload once again Mike.
Thank you for that and yes, I'm pretty sure I'd love the R.
What a calming voice 😂
🤣
Definitely. He should do meditation videos.
To get the best times change gear at 4k rpm. Theres not much point in taking it higher as your out of the torque band so your times will be slower.
Good tip, thanks :)
I agree. If you check out any Dyno charts of the GTD the torque and power fall off a cliff from 4k rpm. 2.5k-4k is where the power is.
Great video Mike, I recognised the Jack and Jill windmills! I have driven an e-Golf, it was as you would expect very smooth, but I would not buy an EV that has been basically retrofitted with the electrical components, I would rather buy an EV that has been designed from the ground up. e-Golf is no longer in production with the MK8, just GTE (hybrid).
Cheers Paul and agree about the retro-fit. I'd still like to give one a go one day though. Hello from Jack & Jill!
Hi Mark..Great Vid Just a general question when did you get the cam belt changed if you have?
Thanks Stephen, glad you enjoyed it. Cambelt change April 22.
Another great video Mike !! Definitely Diesel for me I’ve heard about some problems with jaguar electric vehicles being stuck with acceleration on and no brakes I don’t like Evs at all 😵💫
Thanks again David - no brakes, I don't like the sound of that!
There was a bloke that got stuck at over 100mph in an electric jag on the m62 & had to call the police to ram him to stop it
He was arrested for dangerous driving, the driver made the whole thing up, there was absolutely no failure of the brakes.
