Anyone had a V50 T5 R Design?

[Trev Latter]

Going to have a look at one tomorrow and just wondered if anyone has had one?

I have a V60 D4 that goes like a rocket.
Can only imagine a lighter v50 with a T5 engine to be something insane.

 

[Trev Latter]

I'm hoping so. Had an S60 T5 some years ago and that was ok. I also had an S40 T4 which went like stink for what it was.

I had a V40 T4, very capable car.

My 850 T-5R is insane it attempts to kill you with the torque steer every time the turbo spools up!

Job done and car bought. Lovely bit of kit.

I thought you meant the 850 T-5R from BTCC!

Which one was the pale yellow model, an 850 T5R maybe? That car was a real wolf in sheep's clothing!
Congrats on your purchase Trev

That's the one. Where the advert for them had a rather menacing picture of the front of it and the caption "We're not trying to sell you this car. We just want you to know it exists!".
