Great car, and has some real good resoration work done on it, but I think it should have gone all the way - back to a G40.

Yes it really is made by VW Motorsport, they were initially made as Polo GT G40 Cup cars to race in the series of the same name.

Due to their success in the 1300cc class world speed record, the car gained popularity and they made a limited batch of 500 cars for sale, most of which went straight to VW workers.

Even though the car above, i believe, doesnt have its original engine it should have a 1.3 Supercharged engine making around 110bhp, with uprated suspension.
