Well f**k all u lot I love my mk4 and it's quicker than your average st s3 tt and mk3 tugs 

[Kerrse]

My mk4 is far from a lemon had it for 6 years now & never had any major issues with it, in fact it is still going strong with 138k on the clock. I have owned mk1,mk2 & mk4 but just couldnt bring myself to ever buy or like a mk3 just personal taste i suppose they just didnt float my boat 

Cars are only lemons if lemons have owned them  a well looked after car will go on for ever

I have a mk4. I don't want it anymore it just bores me and drinks fuel. It handles sh!t as the body roll is insane


mk4 downwards = old knackered sh!te

So true a lot of the mk4 faults are caused by 1. poor maintence 2. cheap crap copy parts 3. silly modifications  almost 150k on mine and its been brilliant (water pump aside!)

Indeed always better to have one with as few owners as possible narrows the chances of non maintenance,bad mods etc, mine has had 2 owners & i am one of them  I also agree stick with geniune parts & keep the mods to a minimum

My dad bought his mk4 Gti brand new and it was serviced under Vw dealers network meticulously
Then at 80k the engine blew up ( granted it was the crap 2.0 8v)
Was re built with genuine parts and managed another 20k before same thing happened again

My dad never goes over 3.5 revs lol

I just replaced it with a AUQ

So, cars (or engines in this case) can be lemons, it's not just down to the owners

This was the problem drive a car like this for ever it will clog up & die they are meant to be driven properly lol

Maybe there was some lemons then but I stil believe it's down to the way they are driven,serviced etc as never owned a lemon in my life and have had 6 golfs

yeah its quicker till you get to a corner 
and if a mk3 is a tug that makes the mk4 an oil tanker 

[Bellend]

whats that make a mk5?

Better, since they completely redesigned the suspension/chassis from being an overweight tank.
