There was 30 years between the bug and MK3? Can hardly draw a comparison..

It has the be the MKIV GTi, the Turbo was ok, but the GTi was truly a dog of epic proportions.
For what its worth I had a MK3 8V as a company car and I thought it was pretty good, not a MK2 by any stretch of the imagination, but a very competent car.

YEah MK4 GTI is dreadful without a doubt, not worthy of a GTI badge.

Mk IV GTI (all) = no fun, I have drove the 115bhp, 180bhp, and V6 4Motion and all are too boring.

Mk3 GTI - 16v/VR6 are fast, but 8v isnt THAT slow i found a 0-60 time of 8.7secs standard

Mk2 & Mk1 - tin boxes compared to newer GTI's and look horrid (no offence) but are supposed to be excellent to drive and throw about.
