nice graphs :)

would be cool to see the chart sorted :)

you missed one. there are two v5 variants just like the 1.8T.

The slower one is 150 bhp (1998 -> 1999) as opposed to 170 bhp (2000 and on)

I didnt realise there were two different V5's ... I'll make alterations at some point... too busy today and tonight im out on the piss.

as for the other graph



Does the 8v, 16v and VR6 weigh the same?

Does the 8v and 16v mk2 weigh the same?

Does the 8v, 1.8T, V5, V6 4Motion and R32 mk4's all weigh the same? seems they all weigh 1200Kg.... if only ey..


Erm no. So that graph is as much use as jumping off a cliff.

Its too general... I actually took "time" to make mine.

Black, if it's any consolation I thought it was quite interesting and it must have taken you a bit of time to collate all this data so hat off to you matey.

I now know how much bhp my little car has so thanks.

......now officially dubless.
