    golf 1.8t

    driving along at 40 the other night on a dual carriage way (thats the limit btw) a golf 1.8t comes up next to me and dumps it, we both had our windows open so i heard it pretty loud. he drops back and then speeds up next to me, and dumps it again waiting to get a reaction /race i think (im guessing he thought mine was a normal punto as its not badged up etc and i was driving slowish) so as he drives a little bit in front of me, i drop it in 2 and dump it next to him and he looked suprised love it! then he goes 180 back around the roundabout probably looking for a race but i carry on pottering along lol

    i supose these would beat a punto anyways?

    Its the diesels you really need to watch out for, my dads GTTDI is pushing about 180bhp and is pretty rapid!

    Yer the TDIs are the ones to look out for.

    MK4 GTI's came mostly in 150Bhp form, and they were as you said, a house on wheels. They also did a 180Bhp version, which is fairly rare, and again, pants!
