1.8T, as you can do a lot of tuning on them, they're iconic cars, and you can pick them up on the cheap side these days! Good for buyers :smiley: Bad for sellers :lipsrsealed:

well the R32 is obvioulsly the daddy! but the mk4 is more tuneable!!

have a look in the classifieds on how much your mk3 is worth! :)

havnt heard ot the turbo's going pop!

and it all depends on what you want from your new mk4! the agu is the early one, and better engine, and with a ko3s and a few other mod's it will produce around 200bhp!
