Mk 4 2.0 GTI
« on: 05 August 2008, 01:31 »
right not ad me golf long and just got in from late shift on the way home i gave the golf a bit of heavy right foot action (obviously on the race track nearby my home officer :tongue: ) and got to say not sure where these comments of 2.slug come from if you rev it above 4k rpm it really comes alive and i was impressed, i know it wont keep up with the turbos or maybe the turbo smokers but not as bad as people make out. :laugh:

ah you obviously havent been given a good ride lately linz, it's not always about straightline speed it's about how much guts you have to keep your foot planted through the lanes and bends. :grin: anyway as jeremy clarkson says diesel is the fuel of satin :evil: :evil: plus i got the bike for power the car is for comfort and i find my lovely leather very comfy :smiley:
