What's you're favourite GTI ?

[Exonian]

Voted mk1, I'm old enough to remember how far ahead they were of the competition back then, plus they had the purest styling.
My head would have voted mk2 as they were the best engineered car by a long way. I seriously don't think there was a better built car in the price bracket for another 20 years!!! If they didn't get accident damaged or abused they just didn't rust. The interior was spartan but solid as hell and the big bumper cars just looked the cojones.

Aside from the mk6 which I'm thinking over, I've owned at least one example of each exluding the mk3 (where I had two VR6s but not GTIs as they just didn't cut the mustard) so can at least have a valid owners opinion. IMO

I know it not many votes so far but no surprise there aint any mk3 or 4 votes

Well this thread is in the mk6 section which is probably the least viewed, and realistically unless the thread was titled ''owners of mk6s, which is your favourite GTI?'' this should be in the General Chat section. If it was in there then all and sundry would be diving in with their Golf Plus magazine fuelled opinions which probably just relate to modified cars as that's all they know.
Again, in my very humble opinion!

I put it here because most of the people around these parts are new to the forum, so although the topic may have been done ten million times, its the first time for most of us. Also, people can change their minds, through time someone might think, you know what, I actually think the mk5 is the best whereas last time I thought mk2 etc. And finally, there's not a 'clique' in this forum section or wannabe mods, so its far easier to talk about what we want.

Mark VI for me cos it's the only one I have ever almost owned.  I say this cos I will be picking mine up next week I considered purchasing a mark V edition 30 but when I started seeing ads for the mark VI gti my mind was made up.

Don't you think the mark II in the pic looks very dated.

[Rolfe]

Dated, classic.... all depends on your perspective I suppose.

It's VERY shiny, though!

back when i was young i recall my uncle had a Mk2 in red.  very nice car indeed.  the one in the pic looks great too.

however, i've never wanted to buy a golf until the MkV but when i saw the MkVI, I was swayed instantly!
