I bought my 2.0 MK4 when I was 19. Which is for sale btw, look at sig. Added the parents and all that jazz and managed to get it for about £1300 mark. Cant really remeber as that was a year and a half ago now, well worth looking into, and you can buy my old car :D Everyones a winner.

Sounds like a good way to get cheaper quotes, what insurance companys do this then? I tried Churchill but the quotes were the same.

Indeed, with a 0-60 the same time as your average family wagon there's not much the 2.0 can actually beat.
Plus the 2.0 isn't actually a GTI i read somewhere. Which makes sense that it's only 115hp & the 1.8 is 125hp..
