smoked by a mk2

[jonnygti66]

i have a feeling that all the mk2 lovers are actually living in 2005,mk2s are now-crap-crud-dung-rotten-rubbish-diddlysquat.shot!    
wake up its 2010 get a mk3 they actually have heaters that work,no swimming pools in the floorpan,and most stupidly ov all are cheaper,lol
(not forgetting i actually have a mk2 at the moment)the only mod i might do is get a goldfish for the water inside:)lol
no1 take serious plz im kiddin

well thats cool coming from the owner of a mk2  i remember the pools of smelly water in the foot well, and the sh!t poor heaters, cooling systems that blew the cap off the header tank, and smelling of oily smoke everytime i got to the pub or my parents house, the rattling inside that drove me bonkers, the rusty arches,wings,sills and floor pans, gearbox linkage worn so you choose where 1st or reverse is, i knew it would all come back to haunt me!!!!!
so thats why i have the mk3, maybe i might even get a mk4 next year too  cheers jimbo!!!!

I really think we need to look at the bigger picture, at the end of the day we are all here for one reason and have something in common, that is to be man enough to all have the GTi or VR6 badge. I suggest we stop pointing our guns at each other and lets hunt us some Ford owners   (mk2's still rule though  )

im all for that buddy, but mk3 ftw!!!!!!!!!

[SoundillusioN]

Not everyone on here defending the MK2 is an owner, I have a mk1... it will be back with avengence not locked away in storage and hopefully will never be mocked.  After all it is king! 

anyone claiming mk2 engines are cr@p, think again, the engines kept getting carried over.  the guts of a mk1 engine came from an Audi, the guts of a mk2 motor came from the mk1, the mk3 from mk2 etc...... then realising it wasn't enough stuffed the VR6 in which were later robbed by the mk2 owners because the engines out lived the car! Maybe old mk2s get a bit leaky but its not so much of a worry than in a mk3 because these were designed to float on the sea!  sadly though the hull was quite prone to rust.

Gutted mk3 owner

I prefer the looks of the mk3 but im currently looking for a mk2 for a project needs to be mint underneath not to worried about body work 16v white or oak green  ! is this possible to find such a car? i didnt know they still existed till my mate showed me his under a car cover stuffed into the corner of his garden  

Think im gunna hold onto my mk3 for another 5 years as im sure it will become the next gti icon and then it will be the mk4 people slating mk5's etc etc

Tbh if i could afford a proper car i.e evo 8, M3 or similar i would consider keeping the mk3 aswell although the 2 ive had have been nothing but trouble and ive spent a little fortune on them   but i will continue to keep my current mk3 looking good going strong till i move on. The mk2 would be the first to go !
