I did'nt say they 'rip' anything. I was just saying the 2.0GTi is a fairly quick motor considering the amount of kit they come with.

I know what you're saying about the earlier cars looking good, and I agree, but even those iconic shapes are beginning to look just a little dated in my opinion.

The safety of a car means alot to me, not that I really want to test the airbags.....but as I said before, it's nice to know they are there, especially when the other blokes driving 'on the line' and takes you out.

its cool dude i totaly understand where youre coming from ,defo if youve got a small family not that driving on the line is something i advice but air bags and abs are the way forward if you want to be safe on the roads these days.

i agree on the safer side of things... guess its all down to choice/budget on the day...ive still got a mk4 gti, and no matter how much i loathe the performance id rather be in it in a crash than a mk4....

dont you mean than in a mk2 dude?lol me too i guess else how will we be able to enjoy such pleasure?of owning a dub!

i like my 2.0, i agree the performance is a let down but mine is still quite nippy, and even cruising at 80mph i can still put my foot down and and it will still pull and carry on accelerating, if i had anything more powerfull i prob crash it as i have a heavy foot sometimes 

also i do like the sound of the engine as well, if you get the bite point right on the clutch and give it a little rev it has this really nice grunt/rumble sound
