What was the reg of your one?

Some things you don't need to have to spot they will be a pain in the ass.

It's like looking at some young, fit, pneumatic blonde bird.  Looks nice, but who would want to deal with the trantrums, high maintenance bills and supercharger rebuild costs?

Hang on, it's not like a fit young, blonde bird.  Given the weight penalty it'd be like being with a fat, high maintenance blonde bird.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

why were they bonded in if the frames are the same?

I believe that the bonded windscreen gives the Rallye something like 40% of it's chassis rigidity. :nerd:

P.S. Not sure if it's 40% but it's quite a lot.

Pain in the ass to own - loads of the parts are now obsolete and difficult to find, including the windscreen (no stock at VW either).

Also Rallyes are considerably heavier than normal Golf2s and thus need all that grunt to push the lard around.

but when they look that good though, all is forgiven

 i think their rears look too wide and the rear wheels look too far inside the arches  :lipsrsealed:


I don't think a semi will give the same results

I love the idea of the Ralllye but have always had issues with the styling. Cartainly the factory wheels look too small and skinny in those apping great arches.

Would have one? Hell yeah!
