I dont mean to be a traitor but the 8v is bluddy slow and doesnt handle very well. Slower than VTR and 106xs is pretty embarrasing. My brothers got a 1.8ls Vectra and even thats quicker than my golf :'(

On its own i might have thought it was ok, but having owned and driven other hot hatches i cant really call it a GTI. :(

Whats this obsession with these cars being old, they aren't really that old. I personally wouldn't bother with an A3, as i saw an Audi S4 for sale for 14k locally.
