paulyDMX 0 Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 I currently own a mk2 8V GTI - as it's becoming more unreliable and I'm having to drive more miles to/from work I've been looking into getting something newer.The other half's got a mk4 GTI but it's the 2.0 one and while it's nice to drive etc, I think I want something with a bit more er balls.Going to look at a Y reg 4 motion next week - never been in one or even seen one being driven anything but sensibly.What's the general concesus? Good points / bad points? What should I be looking out for? Link to post Share on other sites
pimpcat 0 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 i would read the r32 buyers guide as they have similar things to look out for other than that off the top of my head there aint really any problems that i have not had to much trouble with mine its a lovely car i wud say deffo get one with recaro's in (leather) if u get a pree march 2001 and 1 u will be £225 better off in road tax but i think its well worth the £440 road tax next year Link to post Share on other sites

paulyDMX 0 Posted October 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Well - after looking at about 6 or 7 different 4motions, I finally got one: Stuff you can't see from this photo - 2000 X heated leather Recarros, R32 interior trim (no walnut) including gear knob, Polo rear wiper, Anni rear spoiler, "privacy" glass all round - 62k and managed 33mpg on the trip home!
