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

I thought it was that Maurice Reeves before I even saw the video :grin:

Have you seen his red mk1?

made me seriously consider a 1.8t, but that engine has ££££'s in it.

There's a write up in one of my old Golf+ mags of the two of them.

You don't own a Mk2, you support it.
