maybe fatboy jeremy clarkson was driving the mk4 ad the little bloke was driving the mk1.
Although i got a think through the post about MG cars. It was selling the rovr 200 or 25 or MG ZVTGHJDJFKGFJ or whatever they were called , you know the stupid yellow things that all the boyos have now. Anyway there selling point was that the bottom of the range 1.4 engined car was qicker to 60 than a 2.0 golf Gti mk4. well i think that we would agrea that the 2.0 is slow by any means of the word GTi. But golfs are not all about right foot everywhere. lets all admit it, if we wanted an outright fast and good handling car we would have bought a lancer or an impreza. All the cars on this site are worth at least ?8k up to 20k for the newer anni editions so we could all afford one. but We all bought the golf for what it was and what it can do is a bonus. I expect most would agrea that the golf is more of a luxury car as most of us have done the RS Turbo and Reno 5, pug 205 stuff years ago and now want the class that come with owning a VW Golf. I will now go back to my comfy chair and sup on my pipe, and tell the kids stories of the good old days when you could drive on the roads without speed cameras and when you did'nt have to slam on the breaks every time you saw a van parked in a layby on the motorway or bridge. Ahhh the good old days.
