I like all golfs.  The only reason I posted that more valves will always be better is cos I was fed up of everyone arguing over what is quicker 8v or 16v!  16v is obviously quicker, but in the end it doesn't matter - they're all good!

:o my god..... it has stopped!  :o

it hasnt stopped.

it just means all the 8v whiners have taken their 8vs up to a 16v in the last couple of days have had their egos moped across the floor.

there is a probably some guy in a 16v somewhere getting sick to death of being challenged by young 8v owners in the last few days....

overall the 16v is quicker, but until 4000rpm the 8v just feels quicker and is quicker, no matter what you will say. Most of the drivers who have tried the 8v and 16v say so. My experience says the same. MORE VALVES MEANS MORE POWER AT HIGHER REVS!!! AND THAT'S JUST NOT FOR TOWN DRIVING.
For motorway and drag racing the 16v wins, but for nice, quick everyday town driving, cheap insurance NO f**kING WAY!
If you need to piss a 16v in a drag racing get some mods. IT'S CHEAP!
