Pissrat - 2.8 V6 syncro

Nice car as said, I had one. No Sports car mind, heavy and juicy too. great engine though and 4wd system.

If I was going for another I'd avoid autos though as the box is soooo lazy.

Eibach springs livened it up a treat too, and together with 18"s really woke up the steering feel.

The 2.3 V5 engine comes in two flavours though, 150bhp or 170bhp (on some Toledo's and Boras mainly).
Also if you're looking at the V6 Audi A4's, worth noting that the 2.4 has 165bhp, more than the 2.6 which has 150, but the 2.8 is 193bhp.

Spec wise you'd get more for your money on a Seat Toledo than a Bora, but then it's not VW, though at least it's not a Skoda.

mmm looking at the raddos and there are only 2.016v around, which imo just isn't worth it in a rado, VR or G at the least.

Been looking at book specs for the V5 and indeed variations are mostly on boras, some golfs too.

The search continues.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.
