Post by: DaveGTiMK on 20 November 2007, 14:03: so there was no 2.0 16v in the MK4, how cr@p is that :huh:

I like the 1.8t MK4 or at a push if moneys get tight the GT TDi 150bhp please.

Jizzam Blue,,,, sorry Jazz Blue. :rolleyes:

I like my Golf, its my first VW and I like the MK4, the red blue dash is great.

Post by: R98 HUF on 20 November 2007, 14:06: dont think they wanted a 2.0 16v as it would have been to close to the 1.8t.......

I think the 1.8t is lower insurance than the MK3 2.0 16v as well, small bonus there.

Post by: gsn1978 on 21 November 2007, 08:45: there is a 2.0 16v GTI Mk4, over the water however the TDI's and 2.0's are known as highlines so not quite GTI's lol, i have a 1.8t and its in my top 3 cars owned defo!! there is a 1.8 non turbo but most folk i know that own them have all wished very soon after that they had held out for the turbo!! good luck and look forward to you in the MK4 section lol.

Post by: AlanD on 21 November 2007, 09:17: I know that the 2.0 is the highline on the continent, but I didnt realise they made a 2.0 16v, you sure about this?

im sure the some if not most 2.0 Mk4 gti's are 16v, i looked at a couple before i bought my 1.8t, one had the engine cover removed and id defo say it looked like 2 cam shafts...... may be wrong im sure some one else will be in to confirm or ridicule this lol.

Post by: AlanD on 21 November 2007, 10:35: You can not get a UK spec 2.0 16v Mk4 I cant tell you that now.
Title: Re: 20v T GTI???
Post by: ub7rm on 21 November 2007, 12:57: I agree, no such thing. For some unknown reason VW took a backward step with that one. Can't understant why, a 2.0 16v would have been a scream.....
