I go insane working at a desk all day have to speak to people what ever it takes  :whistle:

I always have these odd moments some girl ask me the other day if my wheels are actually red  :shocked:

Typical dumb broad.

If I was to get another mk3 it would be a 16v.

Only way I would get a vr6 is if it was put in the right way round and drove the rear wheels

exactly this, by far the best in the range, a lot of people dont realise the true performace of a vr6 (or lack of it)

:grin:

I'm pretty sure a vr6 will out perform a 16v.

Try a tow a loaded van with a 16v then jump in a VR and you'll see the difference in the torque. ;)

Not exactly my friend. In certain areas the 16v will out perform the Vr if set up right. Vr is only good for the sound and for motorway driving nothing else.

Having never driven either a 16v or VR I'd guess the 16v is the better drive as there's less weight over the front axle surely aiding cornering.
