4 gears on a 16v! ebay nonsense
« on: 30 September 2005, 14:23 »
Check it out, this guy thinks his Mk2 16v has 4 gears:

He could be confused by a 4+E gear box, but those were only on non-GTIs.

what also amazes me is that according to his local stealers they said the 4 speed box came as standard!!   :huh:

I know stealerships are useless but that takes the biscuit!!  :laugh:
