I highly doubt that... u see, a 1.1 Rover 200 is over 1000Kg and its got no electrics or bugger all ... plus a small ALUMINIUM engine (not a cast iron lump)


Oh and read the GTI information on this page ... "mk3 weight 1034Kg" (or sumwhere around that)

according to my manual ... the 8v GTI WITH A DRIVER, OIL, FUEL, POWER STEERING FLUID, WASHER JET WATER etc etc it weighs 1185 ... ...

Adult Male Driver - average weight 13st.  ... converted to KG = 83Kg.

so the car with the fluids but NO driver weighs 1102kg ... take out the fuel etc and ya talking the 1034Kg figure from the "GTI info" thread.

The mk2 probably weighs 920Kg ... Without a driver and any fluids.

So mk2's 8v's are lighter than mk3 8v's. but we knew that didnt we?
And they are quicker, but we knew that as well didnt we?
and you engine is BIGGER  :o !

hmmmm........

Yes but instead of 1130kg or whatever was on that chart, its only 1035kg.

and  .... u can still legaly make mk3 golf's ... but u cant legally make mk2's.

No airbag, side impact bars etc ... i wanna live if i crash  ;) :D
