bradeywalker Posted September 28, 2003 Report Share Posted September 28, 2003 Hello there! Does anyone have any recent information about the Phaeton R60? Looked all over the place but haven't found any definate info about the car. If it is going to be released, when, etc. Futhermore coming to a dead end when trying to get info on any of the new 'R' range of VW's. Cheers to anyone that replies!

Woppum Posted September 28, 2003 Report Share Posted September 28, 2003 My guess is it will be around 2 years if it is released. It usually takes a firm that long after the initial model is released to bring out the sports version...e.g A3 to S3etc. I think it will be brought out, to take on rivals like the S55/65, which show there is a market for the product. As far as i know VW want to have an R model for each department, becasue i have also heard about an R polo rumerd to have 210bhp with the S3 1.8T engine.... If i hear of any new news i will post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradeywalker Posted September 28, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2003 Thanks for the reply, I've been on the phone to a contact in Germany but he wasn't letting anything out of the bag, the only thing he did say was that VW will be making an R model in most of the Volkswagen line up, but as you are probably aware its old news. Cheers for the help, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradeywalker Posted September 28, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2003 Yeh definately, looking into it for the old man, (its way out of my league!) He is interested in something different to a merc or a beemer, not that there is anything at all wrong with them! It will be interesting what VW come up with!! It is also interesting what VW might do to that awesome V10 diesel in the Touareg!! Seen some pictures of a tuned Touareg, looks spot on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
