seen this whats the crack 0-60 wise i am after a 16v mk3 really but ......will a lardy mk4 compete

 

hmm, looks reasonably. Maybe for 2.5

Parkers says 0-60 is 8.2

 

Decent car, not a massive fan of the mk4 shape though. Performance wise its not quite a mk3 16v.

mk4 1.8 GTi 20v

mk3 16v GTi

so not must in it then miles are a little high really for my liking

 

Says 0-60 in 9.6s for me!

Its the turbo version that produces 8.2 seconds.

 

yeah i just checked your link,power output too low for weight why did they ever release gtis like these

 

Absolutely right, my mistake

Thought that was cheap for a 20vt!!

In that case mk3valvers looking good.

 

20vt out of my price range i think if a non turbo is thaT much with starship milage on it anyhow

 

If the 20v is a def no no, and the valver is looking good,
i recon you could do a lot worse than the one up for grabs in this thread: click

 

i must admit it is looking like i am going to have to settle for a 3dr due to the lack of 5dr 16v on offer round my way
