Title: MK4 AQY engine VS 8v Tug
Post by: VW BUSH on 04 June 2009, 22:57

How slow compared to my 8v, know of an absolute minter for a song
How unhappy will i be after 10mins of ownership?
dont realy want it as i love my tub (rust and all).
Mates 150bhp turbo is no quicker than mine so 2.0 must be gghey?
Not into "fast cars" got that out of my system now but dont like feisty saxos doin me all the time. :undecided:
