i love my mk3 but!!!
« on: 25 August 2012, 17:04 »
i feel a 1.4 just isn't cutting it, so what would be considered an upgrade? do i jump in the deep end for a vr6 or do i go for a gti? if so what ones are better to own! im not rich so a vr6 would take longer to save up for lol.

I know where there is a very tidy 4 door 16v in dragon green for £1250.

Sell up and get a gti 16v

Don't do a swap as its more work than putting a 1.8t in a gti

16v for sure. VR6 is not a lot quicker and will cost more to insure and run, plus if you do decide to go 1.8t (which seems to be what everyone and their mother is doing atm) it will be easier going from a 16v
