The Haldex kicking in rather unexpected the harder he drove the car. And really Barker actually is a fan of 4wd loving the RS4 and the original scoobys.
Seems that the VW group have taken a really cheap stance on ultimate engineering or whatever set of words they use these days to reflect genius. JL

TFSI engine with Subaru's AWD would be the ideal car.
If the R20 has the latest Haldex 4 as the Opel Insignia it will be much better than older generations and perfect for an all-round car.
As said before Subaru is going backwards. Look at the reviews of the new forester. They took the best SUV and destroyed it.
