Post by: danny_p on 16 May 2009, 13:19: 3 is wrong as well. lists the 2,0 16v whitch was us only but misses the 2.0 8 valve whitch was us only as well

and number 10 is a bit wrong. audi and VW are just brands of the volkswagen audi groupe so vw and audi are the same company tho it's near as dammit owned by porshe now anyway

Post by: twistedblack69 on 16 May 2009, 13:39: Yea, but as far as the everyday consumer is concerned, VW and Audi are different companies. I don't think he was making it for the die hard enthusiast, just as common knowledge (for the most part)

wat about the golf citi

Golf Citi was not a GTi, they made 'sporty' versions like the .:R recently.

The Citi was made as a cheapo town car that you bought your maid :laugh: Or the Police :grin:

number 5 is easily explained - the quiz was created by a YANK. Nuff said :wink:

Post by: DubFan on 17 May 2009, 14:01: This is obviously a USA quiz, because as per the engine question, it also reckons the GTI had a 1.6 8v engine option, which it didn't in the UK.
"3. What engine variants did the MKII/A2 Golf/GTi's came in?
Your Answer: 1.6L 8-valve; 1.8L 8-Valve & 16-Valve; 2.0L 16-Valve; 1.8L G60"

And question 1 is obviously just a case of the USA getting the GTI a year later than we did.
