I would go with the vr simply because the g60's are left hand drive.
If the G60's were right hand drives then deffo go for one.

 I prefer the Rallye but cant decide wether to risk it or not,its just the parts side of things that bother me with them getting on for 15yr old they gotta be getting a bit tired now,the guy wants my valver and a grand for the Rallye pearl blue around 90k 16" BBS alloys brand new coilovers brakes etc full mot,he`s moving house so needs the cash car sounds clean only downside is no charger history,its just my valver is a superb runner is mechanically spot on and needs nothing doing to it whatsoever  would last for years as it is,just a few stone chips here and there to make it mint I just have  a feeling the Rallye could be like running and paying for a pulsar gti-r kind of thing.but they are a dub after all and if they`re easy  to live with what a laugh it would be  :)

Funny this really. I've been having the same dilemma for the past few months. Really like the Rallye, bit rarer and don't mind LHD. Decided from many opinions that the G Lader is too fragile for my type of driving.
VR6 is a nice and strong engine, and in my opinion one of the sweetest sounding engines  :) Too big and 'clumsy' for my liking though.
Am currently thinking about a Mk2 VR6. Its one very big decision........

well Jelly that is more or less my views not so sure if I could be ar5ed to put the 6 into my mk2 would just by a vr6 with a nice suspension set up,but there again I could put a G60 lump into my 8v mk2,and keep the valver,could buy a conversion for same price as a complete standard Rallye exhaust from VW and still have change for a new charger

Agree with you  :) Depends if you are drawn by the 4WD of not bothered. My opinion, anything over 220 bhp should be 4WD.
Rallyes different and 4WD, thats what i like personally...........
