Why the negativity for MK3 Golfs - enlighten me :)

[jimmyb]

Ive had 2xMK2 Golfs 8v and 16v and a couple of MK3's i prefer the look of the fatboy tbh,the mk2's were lively but imo non of the Golfs have been that fast.Ive had a few Japs,fastest being a 300zx 3.0 v6 twin turbo,200sx,3000gt also had MK1,2,3 Astra gte and the Mk1 was my favourite even though the mk2 was faster.
Im just about to build a vr6 turbo lump to put in the current mk3,it will be quick,it will be fun,but still wont be earth shattering and the wheels are being driven from the wrong end,but i will still love it.

I think people just get in their own little groups/bubbles and stick to their guns.It makes interesting forum reading if nothing else.

Can't everyone just get along and THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!



OH AND IT'S BOUGHT NOT FLUCKING BROUGHT!!!

some nice motors there mate,like the sound of the mk1 astra gte! and yeh your right, sometimes i think im on english.co.uk then i scroll up and see golfgti.co.uk, this forums 100x more strict than my english teacher was!

its like premiership football, mk3's are Chelsea and mk2's the Fulham.

haha that says it all,mk3s are quality and mk2s are chit!! lol joke joke there not chit,but not as good as mk3s

It seems mk2 owners hate mk3s because their owners arn't anal about spell checking

lmao its not the leaky sunroof or the dodgy heater matrix that bothers them,,its the FULL STOP.

Excuse me? Is their a problem sir? "Their" describes possessive adjective.

I dont think it really matters what you say on here when this topic pops up if your a mk3 owner you will just be told  how good a mk2 is and how sh!t your mk3 is simple as that.What I have noticed is its mainly mk2 owners that spread the hate about how bad a car the mk3 is.Main thing is Im happy with my mk3 and dont listen to much to the haters as the mk3 is a great car and deserves its gti badge just as much as the rest of the gti range.

Exactly, I love mine but end up taking the bait usually.
