cheers for the advice = thinks thats decided it 1.8 gti it is then - thanks Ivor for those web sites - looks like i can change all the wood for aluminum which will look quality.

when you say get 200bhp out of it, is that just by chipping it ?

Anyway cheers - if anyone knows of someone wanting to get rid of a 2001 1.8 Gti in Black would be very interested.

It's not really a chip, it's the ECU being 're-mapped' to increase the power.  Do a search! :wink:

V5 is all noise. They used to be known by dealers as the gentlemans GTI because it was only old people who bought them. Seriously! They were popular as autos as well because you couldn't get an auto GTI.

The engine does sound nice but the 1.8T is much more flexible.

just my tuppence :smiley:
