That would depend on which era your looking at IMO....

8v 1.8 in a MK1??
16v in a MK2??
VR6 in a MK3 - To overcome the weight issue??
1.8T in a MK4

Etc Etc.....

MK2 is still the best ever built Golf IMO To Leave The Factory....  :wink:

The 16v engine in the Mk2 was great, my favourite car to own and drive, better than my Mk3 16v.

Would love to know what the 16vG60 was like to drive.

This.  I have not driven one, but can't imagine there's much wrong (for the first 30k).
