It feels like a 2 litre, i quite often dont need to use vtec to easily pull away from some quick cars. Fair enough if you dont like it though, no probs!

All i know is the ctr is quicker round the top ger track - nuff said  :grin: lol

No disrespect but so what if it is... if I wanted a fast car round a track I would by an Evo or Porsche... 1-2 seconds quicker round a track are meaningless when you take into account what these cars are used for - daily driving... and in this area the GTI is peerless... and thats why you have one too  :wink:

Have to agree with Jkctr about some snobbish comments in this thread. I certainly don't think my golf is a class above the rest. I'd need an aston martin for that  :grin:
Picked the GTI cos its white and pulls it off unlike wannabes like corsa sxi's. Also the amount of time spent on M-ways. The turbo is much more flexible than my rx-8 which like the ctr doesn't come to life till 6000rpm. Certainly never felt the Golf was a class above the rex.
If u ask me, i'd think VW, Ford and Vauxhall are chavviest due to the number of previous models. You guys must have seen tossers drive around towns in MK3 GTI's etc... with the loud subs BOOMING!
AIn't seen one civic type-r do that tbh. Sure they drive fast, but ones i seen do that are on M-ways and national speed areas, certainly not round town like what chavs would do in saxos etc.

It means very little as i was only joking mate! I very much doubt the deciding factor for someone to buy a car is based on the topgear test times lol

I know you were!! I was just joking back!! lol

p.s. I think some people take those track times more serious than we think.. They should probably use a more challenging track anyway.. maybe like 5th gear with a few inclines chucked in for good measure :nerd:

Technically they cant even prove it was the same person who drove the cars seeing as the stig isnt real  :grin:
