Mk I and Mk 2 :cool: :cool: :cool:

Mk 3 and Mk 4 too bland and fat :sad:

Mk V best of all - will have to reserve judgement on the Mk VI until I see it, but I'm not overly impressed with the look of new Scirroco. Don't plan to change the Mk V though :wink:

i actually purchaced the mk5 on the basis that the real "GTI" had returned and i think it has in some respects.

Never liked the MK1 Golf GTi but I did like the Ford Escort RS Turbo
Never liked the MK2 Golf GTi but I did like the Ford Escort RS Turbo and Astra GTE 16v
Never really bothered with the MK3 Golf GTi, but I did not dislike it, but I did like the Ford Escort RS Cosworth, Lancia Delta Integrale and their rival, the Impreza.
I did like the MK4 Golf GTi and still do, provided they are tasteful and OEM +
I do like the MK5 Golf GTi.

Says it all really! Eventually started speaking sense after being released for joy riding at Max Power events!  :tongue:

agreed, judging by the success and quality of the MK5 I think the MK6 will not let us down  :wink:

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