Like it :)

Only thing I will say is wont the 2.8 be a bit heavy for the car? I expect a 1.8T engine is a lot more expensive to put in though!

Cracking car that mate.
My first car was a Mk2 GTi 16V in helios blue metallic which i ran for 2 years then i got a freshly imported 212bhp Mk2 GTi G60 in metallic aubergine.
Selling that G60 was the biggest mistake i've ever made!

Only thing I will say is wont the 2.8 be a bit heavy for the car?


The VR6 engine was developed in the Golf Rallye (although never supplied as such), which essentially is just a Mk2 with box arches

I need to try and find the photos it was so nice, especially in the sunshine.
Luckily for me it came with coilovers and 3pc BBS slits!
What a car! So much torque (lag-free, obviously) kept you nailed back in the electric recaros!
It did start to get a bit long having to unbelt and climb over the passenger seat to pay at the Dartford tolls like some sort of polish trucker.
So many good memories from that car!
I'm a bit depressed at the moment cos my car is in the garage and body shop and i haven't driven it for 11 weeks due to one problem after another.
