[marcogolfo]

Mk1 and Mk2 built by designers who actually drove cars!!!!
Mk3 safety kicked in, mk4 built by people with fat wallets, mk5 woh lets make it look like every other piece of trash on the road and ride on the success of all the other golfs

Oh dear,

Mk 1 looks the bollox, if i see one on the road i have to stare,

Mk2 never cut it for me, always looked like a fat mk1 and i still don't really like them.

Mk3 looks tough, there is a yellow one driving around sittingbourne with the black headlights and it looks tres bien,

Mk4 this is the toughest looking one, especially in anniversary guise or R32. it oozes street cred, Ok it handles like a bloody oil tanker but it's just so comfy.

Mk5 well i'm sorry if i wanna buya peugeot 307 then i'll go to Peugeot, sorry Mk5 is a307 with VW badge, not my cup of tea.


All so i'll add again, my car does handle like sh!t in the corners, but i have never been beaten off the lights by any Mk2 or Mk3 golfs, you got to admit the Mk4 PD Diesel goes liek stink from a start.

All golfs are nice, (apart from mk2's and mk 5's)

me? noooo  

[richy]

Personally I like all Golfs,
 

but...

Mk1 would be my fave, followed by Mk4, then Mk2 and Mk3 closely behind that.
Not made up my mind about the Mk5.

Why do I have a Mk4 and not a Mk1 you ask!!! .... I wanted something a bit newer (i.e. more reliable and less hassle)

Not with 0-60 times of 9.1 and 8.9secs its not.

same people who think 8v has more torque than 16v i bet

It does lower down the rev range ... we get 127lb/ft (or wotever it is) at 5400rpm where your probably "just" under that ... but u rev higher and get your 140lb/ft (or wotever u get) at around 6400rpm.

U need a torque graph to explain better.... we have 127lb/ft @ 5400rpm

U have (insert higher figure here) @ (insert higher RPM here)

U have MORE torque ... just at a different part of the rev range... u get ur torque higher up and also get more... we achieve ours lower down the range and get less than u when at our max...

that make sence??
