Title: Mk2 to Mk3!!
Post by: Andy25 on 06 April 2009, 00:14

I've had a couple of mk2 16v's and fancied a VR6 for ages so i took the plunge and finally got one!!

it has the Vento front end which i'm not too keen on if anyone wants to swap for the standard front end let me know!!

Pics below just cleaned at my mates house!!

Very nice, the Vento front end suits it.

The Vento front end would look better if it was colour-coded.

+1 much prefer the golf3 front end especially with hella quads.. :drool:

So how does owning a vr compare to your mk2's, especially speed wise..?

Both very good, if i'm being honest i never really rated VR's until i went in my mates and it totally changed my perspective! The noise is amazing!!

Dont get me wrong i still love the mk2 it feels more nimble but the mk3 feels more solid and is quicker :evil:

The VR does drink alot more though i have noticed that much :shocked:
