V6 or 1.8t?
« on: 01 November 2006, 22:30 »
I'm wanting to buy a mk 4 for everyday driving while my mk 2 is being rebuilt, I live in France and am going to be doing a lot of driving to the alps for the boarding season, so was wanting a 4 motion, is there a 1.8t 4 motion?

the V6 is the other option, what would you reccomend??

also is there many tuning options for the v6?

Do they not do a diesel 4motion?  If your doing a lot of driving, that might be the way to go.  Still highly tunable...

Looks like I've found a v6....

in Germany 13000 euros
black, recaro black leather, xenons, navi, 90000k km, dealer maintained

the vw dealer even said for 1500 euro he'll go and inspect it, give me a vw warranty and export it to france for me!!

it proves they are out there though. Keep looking but dont rule out an audi and id certainly say diesel is the way to go!

like "MARTYN" says A3 TDI Sport Quattro which has a 130 BHP Tdi lump, i'm not sure if its the same lump as the Golf GT TDI 130 but the Quattro means a quicker 0-60 but you do get less mpg
