Tricky, the Golfs did get heavier every new mark. I reckon you might be lucky but I wouldn't put money on it.

Well it wouyld be close but i've dragged againts a vauxhal astra 1.4 16v and managed to beat it. so would be worth a shot at.
Let me know how it goes
Mine is only the 1.2 8v with induction kit and an exhaust on it. just the tires i;ve got now are really grippy so it doesn't really wheel spin which is handed when draging

yeah i recon will have him but wont find out now as the **** has gone and spun it off the road n f**ked the front
im waitin now to see wot it looks like when it gets towed back. hes ok but think his pride is bit dented the vw obviously dont take courners as well as he thought.
Cheers any way guys will see if can get ne pics of it 2 show u.

Arf that 1.4 engine gives 60bhp, and reaches 60mph in just under 17 seconds. I think you'd totally whoop his be-hind Or would if his car wasn't in three bits!

punto's gonna win, the vw is really heavy, handles like a boat and the engine is really underpowered given its size, even if it's a 75bhp model your power to weight and decent handling should see you win

never underestimate your punto! it handles well in the dry!, the engine has good power up the revs and your gearing will be lower than that of the golf!
my 1.1 55s i had beat 1.3SRs. one of my sporings (1.6) makes a mess of golf GTIs and the std 1.24 16v is not realy thet far behind!

when he gets it back on the road or gets another cr#p car (give him a good beating for all us with puntos!)
