It didn't break down, they just wanted to test how fast it goes with four people pushing it.

I rather think this is a test of the new 0 emission biofuel variant

The 6th picture along you can see the front end is totaly different to that concept version under the cover.

Whoever wrote this story got the location wrong! One of the pics show a sign at Stovepipe Wells which is in Death Valley California...

If we push harder we can make it to maccas before brekkies over :D lol This story made my day thanks WCF and VW. Seriously catchmyshadow is on the right track they probably could not fix it on the side of the road due to the face and engine being revealed. Can't wait to see the behind the scenes video :D

Just curious, when did Mexico annex Stovepipe Wells, Death Valley, CA?

There are no "STOP" signs in Mexico, ALL of them, even those found in the roads or cities near the US border say "ALTO", and the lanes on the highways are divided with white lines, not yellow ones... so that my friends, is not Mexico
