    Donkervoort D8 GTO JD70 Revealed, Able To Pull 2G In Corners

    Dutch automaker Donkervoort has already teased their road-legal D8 GTO JD70 and now the car has officially been revealed and it is a serious piece of kit.

    They claim it is “the first 2G super sports car” meaning the D8 GTO JD70 is capable of exceeding 2G of lateral acceleration in hard cornering. The most impressive part is that it can achieve this on regular road tyres apparently.

    We would hardly call the Nankang AR-1 Competition-spec tyres ‘regular’ as this is what is fitted as stock to the go-kart-like creation but this is still rather impressive.

    Power comes from the superb 2.5-litre five-cylinder from Audi which delivers 420 hp (313 kW) in this setup. Power goes to the rear wheels via a close-ratio Tremec five-speed manual so the purists will be ecstatic to handle the cog swapping themselves.

    It weighs just 700 kg thanks to the prolific use of carbon fibre so you will be lighting up tracks around the world. Donkervoort says this car pulls over 1G on acceleration, reaching 100 km/h in 2.7 seconds, 200 km/h in just 7.7 seconds and flat out it will hit 280 km/h.

    Just 70 are slated for production so it will be an extremely rare machine to see even at a race track. If this is something you need to add to your collection, you better act fast as Donkervoort says that half of them are already spoken for.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
