1.6 or 1.8?

' DRIVER ' is just daily runner, amongst the collection. 

I didnt mean to offend anybody else i would of been a bit more harsher 
On a serious note, i was VERY tempted to buy a Mk3 VR6 last week......i wanted the leather seats!

  see..?

I love my driver, but I want a GTI, the only reason I've got the driver at the moment is the insurance cost.
814 for the driver best quote
1250 for my friend's mk3 16v 2.0
When I've got some no claims behind me, then I'll get one!

same here, when i can afford the insurance on a Gti i will get one imediatly, but for now itll have to be a driver.

im not gonna lie, i think very little of mk3`s, some of them look really cool tho,
i apoligise too if it offends anyone that i dont like them but at the end of the day i like mk2`s for what they are and the mk3  is a whole different car in my opinion, and they just aint as fun.

it would be fun to have a vr6 tho

Haha, well said!
I know, my mates have all had french cars at some point- 5 GT Turbos, VTR's, Clio 16v, and to be fair they are all quick motors......
Im affraid i used to be a Vauxhall Astra Mk2 guy, then i was converted by my cousin to MK2 Golfs!!! -now im totally addicted!

As for the Mk3 GTI topic, im yet to race a Mk3 thats beaten me.... the GTI badge is race bred, if you want comfort, fuel economy, soft suspension, you look at maybe a TDI? 
The Mk1 GTI has power, light weight, class, uprated everything
The Mk2 GTI has power, medium weight, class, stiff suspension, electrics, i could go on......
The Mk3 GTI has less power than all GTI's, heavy as a boat, wallows round corners like a boat, boring.....
The Mk4 GTI has...........a Turbo?, a boat!
The Mk5 GTI has...........WHY?

In fact, what im trying to say is, MK2's rule!!!!
(sorry if this post has upset anyone?! I'll get me coat )

Well tbqh I am offended at your lack of ability to read. In fact, had this been in the mk3 section I'd have taken even more objection. Read what I said numbnut - VW just made the car different. It grew up. It's not about racing other cars.

And guess what - I've got a GTI and you've only got a poxy 'driver'! Was this forum 'Golfdriver.co.uk'? No? Well then.

Enough of the Driver bashing! Or are we lowly Driver drivers not good enough for the elite group? 

[Haribo!]

drivers are great, theyre the perfect car for those who cant afford the insurance on a Gti, anyway thers nothing poxy about a driver, with a few cheap modifications my one easily beats a mk3 from the lights.

So do pedestrians...

I got beaten off the lights by a freak gust of wind yesterday

Seen an awful attempt to modify a Mk3 today, from the front it looked cool, had badboy bonnet, mk4 styley lights, VR6 front spoiler, etc but then on the side it had M3 mirrors, M3 sideskirts (which didnt fit properly) Neon lights inside the car on the dash (how would you be able to see at night) and on the back it had some weird home made bumper from a load of guttering, sticky back plastic and a fairy liquid bottle, and a wonky twin 6" exhaust!!! 

 Like Haribo said, "some Mk3's look cool if done nicely, but some look totally cack!

Mk2's RULE! DRIVERS or GTI's
