I sat in both today at the mk5 private show thing. They are SOOO damn dated inside.. I couldnt put up with that...
My mk3 is borderline ancient, but these older models... no offence like, but ... eeeek... 80's thru and thru

got no class you dont want comfort you want fun and thats what the mk1/2 promises you no frills
not u mk2

Theres a huge leap in inside style from the mk1 to the mk2, i love mine, 80's yes, but the 80's at its best!!!
-
aye black leather interiors look well dated im mk2's ;)

its not just the seats... the dash... the .... everything.... just reminds me of saturdays when i was seven driving to see my nan in my dads old 80's beast... i hated that damn thing.
I hated almost every 80's car.
-
You must be too young to want to reminisce then - cant beat the old style - so much class and individuality, not just another euro-box, or jap pocket rocket like todays cars
-
*Livin in the 80's* :D
My mk2 is the cheapest and best car I have had!!!! Ever!!!

Depends what you're after.. My Mk1 has little to no luxury and thats how i like it... I used to have a Nissan 300ZX 300hp+ very fast and full of luxury but big..
The old golfs are proper throw about cars...
No offence but Mk3 onwards i wouldnt bother (unless i was an old crusty), i think VW lost the plot after the mk2 (and a little during it).
Its not a small throw about car anymore and its not a fast car by any means
.... Its just a family car in a posh frock in Gti format

drive at 60mph and crash in a mk1/2
drive at 60mph and crash in a mk5.
... all manufacturers (except the french) are concentrating alot on safety these days.

What?!?!?
If i was interested in safety i'd buy a Nissan Micra then i'd never get to 60.
I take it your comment was a joke
-
no it wasnt a joke. Technology moves on, people move on... i dont wanna drive a death trap if I crashed.
if sum1 in a new Ford Mondeo hit your car at 60mph... mk2 golf? ya prolly dead
if they hit u in a mk5... u probably live
see? they give u 200Bhp, and loadsa safety so its as quick as the old things but with safety.
R32 Vs 16v Mk2.
hmmmm....
-
i'm afraid i totally disagree with you.
1st - Do you spend you life worrying about if a Ford Mondeo will hit you? yes you have more chance of dying in a less safe car but you still have a chance..
2nd - 200hp, whats the got to do with anything. 200hp in a car twice the weight? do the maths.
3rd - if i wanted a safe and fast car why go for a golf? there are far better cars at the same price (and less)
-
Your thoughts on a crash in an old car, way off the mark.
I had a mk2 scirroco for all of 8 hours before I was hit in the drivers door at over 100 MPH by a couple of boy racers - The police turned up, took one look at the car, and the surrounding debris, then closed the road off as they thought it was a fatal accident, then they started skid testing (which is how I know how fast they were going) - but as you can obviously see, I survived, and so did the 3 passengers. The police were off the opinion that this was probably due to the VW build quality - not bad for a car on a Y plate!!
my injuries - whiplash, 1 inch scratch on my chest, and knocked unconscious. every one else came out without a mark
-
'BlackGTi' I think youve lost the plot.
Why dont you get on the classic car forums and tell those boys their cars suck cos they dont meet with you stringent safety standards??
You want safe, go on the Volvo forum.
-
i dont even know where to start laying into this muppet.
not worth the effort.

maybe the mk5 interiour wasnt up to your expectations if thats what your trying to say mate? :-\

If technology moves on how come they keep making them slower and slower?

I cant every remember the fastest mk1/2/3 ever getting to 60mph in 6.6 seconds..
and excuuuuuuse me for having an opinion.

Yes but you miss the point.
No one cares.
Which is fairly fundamental to your argument.
If you are so desperate to start a flame war, say something interesting about french cars and how your next purchase is a Clio cause you like vavavoom.

u should have checked out the top gear show the other week with the feature 'old skool v new'. they raced new versions of cars against the original model. mk1 golf gti v mk4 version (sorry i cant bring myself to call it a 'golf' - everything past mk2 is so not deserving of that name!) anyway, no prizes for guessin that the mk1 p****d all over the mk4, provin what we already know !!! if i was gonna die in a car crash i'd rather go in my mk2 golf and have had a life - try gettin one!

Its ok to hav an opinion,but its abit stoopid to post it on a all mks of golf forum n sh!te of u to hav a go at quite a few peps on here buy saying
"i counldn hav a mk1 or mk2",i mean,what were u expecting?"Its ok Black_gti,say r cars r sh!te n well except it all"-i don't think so!N the fact that u automatically said the above,proves that u r not mature enough to hav a healthy,adult debate so don't start one!
Oh n i do love my car but i also respect those with other mks of golf n vws in general,even if they aren to my taste.

You should check out his arguments with VR6 on the Mrk3 section. He really starts to throw his toys out the pram there.

LOL ;D

I think some interesting points have been made but in my eyes the 80's were the golden years for VW, they were leagues above other manufacturers and when the competition got a little hotter they just bought out a faster model.
The GTI golf ruled the roost and every other manufacturer copied the idea blatantly, but the vw products were still head and shoulders above the rest.
Also its good to note that you say you wouldn't own a MK1/MK2 golf and that you yourself own a MK3 8 valve which is probably the least deserving of all GTI's to wear the "GTI" badge.
Driving for me isnt about Getting from A-B in the quickest time as I pretty much doubt I would have a licence at the end of the week if I did drive that like. Its about my car having a character, It sometimes acts up, rattles a bit but then if it didnt, I would have nothing to do on a sunday when the sun is out.
I understand your views but I think they are a bit blinkered as its the MK1 and MK2 that made the GTI image what is is today.

Goodpoint well made, just gotta wait for 'BlackGti' to get back from his Saturday job and ask his mum if its alright to to go on the PC before tea so he can rant at us.
:P

images of Harry Enfields 'Kevin' come to mind.

Although Ive got a newer dub, I would like to think that I will always have a bit of 'old skool' waiting in the wings for me. Nothing like going out for a blast in the mk2 on a hot sunny day :D:D
-
Hold the F*** up a minute.

Wrong, the mk4 2.0 8v is.

Dont even get me started on this, just cos I ventured out of the house... AWAY from the PC etc doesnt mean I have sum seedy safeway stacking shelves job, im a Network Administrator and Ive owned a GTI since I was 18! ... yes, I went OUT OF MY WAY TO BUY A GOLF GTI... did YOU do that at 18??? did U do that with only 8months driving under ya belt? did U take out a HUUUGE loan to buy the car? did U pay ?????????????????????? for insurance on it?
NO?? well shut the **** up then.
-
Do you want a fight about it? ::)
-
Do you want a fight about it?
that your only solution? im be happy to.

Bring it on chubby big tits boy :D
-
Here's a tip. Dont go around picking fights online, you never know, you might meet that person one day.
-
Heres a tip
I know what you look like
You don't know what i look like
-
LOL I think you've lost your rattle mr black GTI and I think that last remark was a threat to everyone who posted on this thread
-
Mr.Blackgti , you are a 19 year old boy
If you wanna pick a real fight then do it in your playground
Venturing out could cost you dearly
-
19yr old, yes thats correct, lets just think about this
19, in his prime. ... ok... what do 19yr olds do the most (after sex and drinking .... fight!)
so, lets now have a recap... fights... been in many... almost everytime i go for a pissup.
which is most fridays and saturdays... how many fights have i lost? not many... why did I lose them? mostly cos of the opposition resorting to bottles and other objects (bar stools, chairs, glasses etc) ... i have my battle scars, and no doubt by the time in 25 ill have more.
I think you should be picking the fights in the playground... cos all u do around here is boast over your VR6 and try to lengthen your thingy with your slurs and abuse toward us 8v owners... u dont act like a boy in his mid twenties do u?
-
Say what ya want
Everyone on here thinks your a prick
A little f*g**t boy

He doesn't act like a boy in his mid twenties because he isn't, he is 30 and I would shut up giving him sh!t.
A 19 year old who likes a fight. thats very nice for you. Your now showing your immaturity by saying you can beat everyone up, I think your more like 8 than 19.
-
thanx for the PM golfvr6
You going to gti international?
i know what you f**king look like
Mucho appreciated.
Everyone on here thinks your a prick
A little f*ggot boy
:o everyone on a forum thinks im a prick??? GOD DAMN!! MY LIFE AINT WORTH LIVING NOW!!!
-
So end it all
Before i do it for you
-
hahahahahahaa ;D
thats funny stuff.
-
:o I cant believe this has gone this far,whats goin on? :o
Dinky :-*
-
i think the mk1 / mk2 vw's are counted as classic motors m8ty ! i wouldnt turn me nose up at one i love the mk1 cabs ! and u should see the bad boy james @ jbs has got 1.8 16v turbo mk 1 !! its a killer and as for mk2's they look wicked done up ! big bumpers recaros etc etc ...also at jbs now is a white mk 2 having a r32 lump put in it !....
but the bottom line d00d keep then kinda comments to your self when u say things like that u are upsetting proud mk1 and mk 2 owners
-
everyone is entitled to their opinions :)
(mk2 ;D)
-
everyone is entitled to their opinions
exactly.
-
Sometimes its better to keep your opinions to yourself.
How you can say a mk2 16v is sh!t, well ???
-
engine is fine... its the interior...and the outside styling.
-
park a mk2 next to a mk3 and which one would get more looks. have to be the mk2
-
Everyone I speak to (except u lot online) say the mk3 is better looking.

you spelt huge wrong BTW :-\
listen m8 behave urself everyone is entitled to there opinion
-
I find the mk2 more of a pleasure to drive but having said that I wud like a mk4 for driving long dist.
And can u stop talking about having fights its pathetic. If someone says something u don't like then rise above it instead of acting like thugs, I didn't think people on here were like that ???
-
I keep the oldie for fun and use the polo for everyday. Not to everyones taste, but its what I like and thats the important thing. ;)
-
the mk2 is so much a better car. if you can't live without your luxeries like electric this and that bolt them on! it doesn't take a genius to install leccy windows and central locking.
-
My mate just crashed his mk1 at 70 and ended up flipping it 3 times. The car looked quite bad but I?ve seen worse. Anyway he climbed out of the passenger side window with nothing more than a scratch on his had from the broken glass and you recon there not safe? Built like a brick sh!t house m8. I'm just trying to get the photos of it quite upsetting because it one of the best I?ve seen for sensible money.
-
ffs its a VW same car just with upgrades through the yrs i could say the same about mk3's but i am a vdubber kinda dood !!and love em all ;D except vixters :P (just to wind her up ehehehe)
-
if you visit the south africa vw site, youll see that they still make the mk1 :D
