i not a huge difference in insurance for 1.8 driver and 1.8 8v gti...but 1.8 driver about 10 seconds to 60 maybe wee bit more...gti 8v about 8.5 and the 16v about 7.9-8.0(but after 60mph the 16v will leave 8v standing )

 :grin:i have mate...and miss my old mk2 16v...was the fastest mk2 16v id owned...for some mad reason it put out 150bhp...only mod was stainless system..and would hit 142mph on rev-limit(so ive been told :wink:)..used to love destroying many a supposed faster cars :grin: :grin:....

but now im in a gti 8v :cry:...not that its a bad car...cos its one of the cleanest mk2 gti's ive owned...and runs like a new car...and goes very well...but it does lack the 16v grunt at higher speeds...still it will do till i hunt down another small bumper mint 16v :cool:
