  • honest enthusiasts opinion please:

    as a 17 y/o new driver, should i go for the MK1 Gti or the MK2 Gti?

    Insurance costs not a big issue: but are they still v high?

  • @Snortthesweetener go for the mark 1 because the care hase a better response

    mark 2 go for the older ones (mirror in the middel of the door)

  • the red golf gti ttf341y is my mates..he's owned it from new.

    i drove this car years ago...and it made me go out and buy one...now had several mk1 and mk2's

  • do you have this film on dvd

  • i'm a GTI lover, i once drove a Fahrenheit across the western US, but i just gotta throw this out there... if you ask me the actual "original hot hatch" would be the 1972 AMC 401-XR Gremlin. it had rear wheel drive and a 401ci engine (from the Javelin AMX) and could run the 1/4 mile in under 13 seconds. and that's ten years prior. i know european cars have better handling, but a little credit is due. and you could get the levi's blue denim interior...

  • @Snortthesweetener

    If you go for a MK II, I would take the 16 valve engine.

    In my opinion, that was the very best Glf GTi ever. ;)

    From the front looking, the MK1 and 2 look very simular.

    From behind, yes, the MK1 is defenetly the best looking, altough less spacious and less practical. But I believe nowadays, you can get a late mk2 quite cheap, whereas a good MK1 cost classic car money...

  • @benvw1983 ..except for the mk1/mk2 with VR6 :P

  • the only GTI is mk1 GTI,mk1 forever.

  • my vw 83 is almost finished! i cant wait to drive it

  • i got a mk1 gti old y reg , have put mk2 1.8 16v engine in.. no1 can keep up!!!!!
