That's true mk3's do have brakes think they're called anchors wind the window down and throw it out.
Nah you don't need hoooge brakes on a mk1 because they don't weigh 14 tonnes kerb weight you just touch them and it slows down!! plus a VR has a big lump of pig iron up front as well!! Mk3's are useful though for some things, like brakes and engines
If you own a mk1 or mk2 rhd golf you might as well walk unless you have one of these
