[nmt60]

Hi guys i have a blue mk1 and im goin changin it soon thinkin of a golf but i really like the mk2 sporting are they as good as the mk1 are the seats comfy?are they nice to drive please help i really want 1

i find the seats better in the mk2, the car will handle different as its heavier

 

[nmt60]

will it be much faster than a mk1 60s?

 

[toad101]

its a few seconds faster to 60, 10.2sec top speed i think is 110-115mph though my bros one could do 120mph, about the same on fuel economy

Now for the all important question do they have cupholders?

 

[toad101]

some have two at the bottom of the centre console, others have a six disc auto changer there instead

i think i will get a mk4 golf gttdi and put audi rs4 alloys on it,get the seats from an r32 golf get the gearknob handbrake and leather gaiters from a mk4 gti and then get some vag carmats. oem style rocks!!! What do you think about that?

think you should go to a VW forum and asks them! Ive got a mk2 sporting and i had a golf gti mk 4 and it was sooo slow, great build and never went wrong but felt like a tank. Mate has a GT TDI mk 4 and its nice car but punto is much more fun he loves my car and we have swapped for a few days but would have mine any day.

I think you have come to the wrong place if you want a honest unbiased answer!

Althought the wheels on the MK4 have been done a million times. Be different!

 

[nmt60]

no offence but do you not get oem style modifying?

If I wanted my car to look like all the others I wouldn't bother doing anything to it.

 

[nmt60]

uh no...it wouldnt be like the others it'd be like a higher model in standard form.

It will be like the million others that I see all the time.


Edit to save further confusion "Million" is an exaggeration.

Ya maybe so but they look so cool in standard spec,
