Default Super fast Golf in Wilmslow/Bramhall area

Has anybody out there seen a seriously fast black mk3 Golf with a big bodykit in this area? I had an encouter with it on the A34 and it kept up with my 260-270bhp Classic I assume it has a 1.8T or turbo VR6 motor...

Eeerm, let me think "Meet by chance or unexpectedly" would be a good starting point.

Only 220 brake? Not that high by 1.8T standards

Hey, that bad boy pulled up alongside me the other day, I looked at him through his tinted windows, but he just looked straight ahead like I wasn't there. His bodykit was like well blinged, so I thought he must be packing some serious horses. So the lights change and we both really gunned it, and I couldn't believe like he was keepin' wiv me, thru every gear we was neck and neck to the next roundabout and I was like, I can't believe how fast that thing is shifting, I kept with him round the roundabout but then he really nailed it onto the Wilmslow bypass and I couldn't keep wiv 'im.

He better watch out though, if I see him again and I'm on my racer not my mountain bike, that bad boy will be history!
