Bader Racing T14

Post by Ron&Gill »

I just saw on Motor Vision Channel, that Bader Racing T14 Karmann Ghia with the 993 works and has been featured here before do a few laps around the Nurburgring.

I thought it looked and performed great but the humourless announcer thought it was too heavy, too boxy, too old, too everything.

Jeez... Don mention ze Var. :|

Since I saw this the 1st time, it has been my favourite VW of all time.
The only substitute for cubic inches are more cubic inches.
