« on: 10 September 2003, 11:29 »
What is the standard bhp, 0-60, 0-100 and 1/4 time?

For the...
mk2 1.8 8v
mk2 1.8 16v
mk3 2.0 16v

?

Sorry if this has been asked before, but i couldnt find the thread if it was. Or if anyone could send me to a website or a thread that shows me these times/figures, i would much appreciate it.

I was ideally looking for the 1/4 mile and the 0-100 times.

????????

Where did you find 9 secs for 8valve???...I have a completly standard 87 mk 2.....and have proven 0-60 times between 8.1,8.3 secs...consistently...(I have the printouts!!!)...(I have broken the 8 secs once....with some super slick 1st to 2nd ;)...

Its true, the Mk2 8v is pants. Most of the time.

But remember the old adage though.

(Mk2 16v especially): GTIs get quicker with age and care. Ever wonder why the Mk2 16v becomes devastating in old age?

Hmmm... those are not the VW quoted performance stats, I've got an original showroom brochure, lists the MK2 8v 0-60 in 8.3 seconds & top speed of119MPH
