magic_tree 0 Posted May 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 So far, with the exception maybe of oolub, whose RS Turbo was probably quicker than a VR, we are all on our most powerful motor yet with the VR's. Link to post Share on other sites
Kaz 0 Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 I'm afraid I started of with Fiesta's!I had a 1.1 mk2 Fiesta when I passed Then a 1.0 mk3 FiestaPart ex'd that for a 1.4 Zetec mk4, which I kept for 5 years, stuck a 1.7 Puma engine in it once I'd had it a few years, did loads to it, inc a re-spray.Then I got my mk1 Golf Swallowtail, which I later sold back to it's last owner before me.Sold the mk4 Fez and bought my VR.Not a lot of cars for ten years of driving!However my partner has had a mk2 Golf for the last 6 years (now a BAM'd 1.8T, 280BHP) and a mk4 GT TDI for 3 years. So have been into dubs for years. Link to post Share on other sites

My previous car was an impreza WRX type RA and before that I had a BMW M5 and a few years before that a cossie. Trouble is I love Golfs too much and always end up coming back to them. The VR is a good balance between power and economy and tends to be built better than most. I've just agreed to buy a supercharger so maybe the economy won't be a plus any more :S Link to post Share on other sites
