MK2 VW Golf GTI Needed for TV Appearance

[thai-wronghorse]

Whats the programme called and when does it get aired?

[dubber36]

But the eight valve is the classic mk2 ... 16v s and big bumpers were a last ditch attempt to keep selling the car and are only bought by peeps with small willies

Would this be the same 16V that was brought out in 1986 (just 2 years into the production run) as the 8V would not cut it against RS Turbos and Astra GTEs?

[thai-wronghorse]

Yeah, that'll be the fella.

I can't believe you lot are squabbling about 8 valves and 16 valves.
They both represent the best Gti and  equally have their place in the model.

Just like big bumpers are better than small 

[CanisLupus]

Small bumpers all the way In Europe most want the big, in the US most want the small, each has their market

But what's with all the hate with 5 doors? I like my 5 doors... SO much more convinient!

[logeyboy]

Never quite understood the "convenience" of 5 doors?
You have a smaller drivers door with the pillar brought forward to obscure your view when looking right? And the rear passengers still have to squeeze through a tiny rear door to get in, usually about as much effort as getting behind a seat tilted forward in a 3 door?
And if its 5 doors because of kids, they can easily get in a 3 door and they can't try and open the door whilst moving.

Oh and 5 door cars simply don't look as good... 

[damien.wrl]

Smaller doors are easier to get out of in a tight garage or parking spot ?? Some people have friends and they can go in their car without acrobatics ....

Valver owners have small winkles which is why they don't have friends and there are very few 16v more doors
