Had to let go of My mk4 1.8 Turbo :(
« on: 15 July 2011, 15:32 »
Due to a growing family i sadly had to part ex my Golf for a people carrier, a 3 door would not be practical with 2 car seats in the back and other children to carry...

Hopefully one day i will be able to get another GTI to play with  :smiley:









Here is the Dad's Taxi



















Hope i dont offend anyone :/

I will still be checking in on this place..

Not a bad looking motor to be fair.

It's a good looking MK1, the standard models are horrible looking.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

We've had one of those for 2 years, we rely on it every day and it's been a great car.

it is quicker than the golf  :undecided:, it was the only people carrier i was gonna go for, gonna buy a vxr in 2 years :)

i was not keen on the headlights but i have grown to like them, and more people than not like them ;)
