TDI Power!!!! Fast? Hell no! Fun? Absolutely! A 105 hp TDI VW Golf V diesel with 3 adults on board taking a lap on the Nürburgring Nordschleife. This was back in October of 2004. I think it was about the 3rd time I'd driven the track. Since then I've broken into the 8 minute range driving "proper" cars. Other than the obvious power deficit, the car was enjoyable to drive for a FWD econobox. The brakes were plenty up to the task (got a little fade at the very end) and the handling was fairly neutral.
