Bought another one.
LOL.
Welcome to the flabby world of Mk4s. Apparently.
I have to say mine understeers a bit, but otherwise it is remarkably close to my Mk3 in handling, and not at all what I expected listening to all the Mk2 experts. It wears the weight well.
And the creature is much more comfortable.
I stuck a black grille on my silver GTI today. Much better. Makes it look like it has 50 bhp extra under the bonnet.
