vr6madmike 0 Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 I dont miss it at all really, thought I would as I was quite attached too it, the anni is a lot easier too drive the power delivery really is quie something, however it has had quite a bit done on it so I cant comment on a standard one, It gets lots of attention and its nice having something pretty rare, also save a packet in petrol its amazing how the mpgs add up over time,Go have a look at some as a package they are really nicely finished, but please remap it, its rude not too!

Phat VR6 3 Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 When I sold mine I simply put it up for what I wanted - not what others were saying it was probably worth' date=' [/quote']Nothink wrong with putting it up for ALOT more than what you want for it, Ive known a few people that have sold £250 cars for £800, You would be surprised how quickly they sell somtimes, People think they get a better example if you pay more but unfortunately its not the caseIf it does sell after a while start dropping the price Depends if you want a quick sale really Theirs loads of cars i want but can't afford them lol.... Probably wont buy anything else until i can afford a A3, Audi RS4 or 6, always wanted a caterham for track days , sierra cosworth RWD an old bmw m3, Evo 10, mazda RX7, That new skyline that put clarsons neck out lol,,, anything fast and i start getting interested really lol Link to post Share on other sites
H13VYY 0 Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 yeh same as..i decided to keep the vr until i can afford something new and faster like m3, rs4,r32 etc (probably 2/3 years). I probably even then keep the VR as track car. imo there isn't a car in the same league as the VR in its price range. Link to post Share on other sites
Focker-out 0 Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 I sold mine last year, after having VR6s since 2003, and replaced it with an R32, biggest mistake ever, most disappointing 15k i ever spent, it wasnt particularly quick, was silly thirsty and on the face of it rather boringReplaced it with a GTi Anniversary TDi, cos i bought a flat, that was not bad, a better all round car than the R32 I have just bough with the girlfriend a 2004 BMW M3, similar money to an R32 MK5 and far more car for the money So thats what id replace a VR6 with OR a Mini JCW but a supercharged one , Girlfriend traded hers in against the BMW and its a car i truly miss, quicker in a atraight line and point to point than a MK5 ED30, Link to post Share on other sites

mike 6 Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 and replaced it with an R32' date=' biggest mistake ever, most disappointing 15k i ever spent, it wasnt particularly quick, was silly thirsty and on the face of it rather boring[/quote']interesting.... i did really want an R32 at one stage, im thinking otherwise now.... too many peopel are saying R32 on this thread, i know its the obvious upgrade from a VR but still... there are other cars out there Link to post Share on other sites
vr6madmike 0 Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 I think with the amount of competition there is out there now, 13k (ish) can get you a lot of car for your money and I have too say I can think of plenty of others id rather spend 13k on, Shame about the anni Martin, did it go with the LM's?

craggsy 91 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 I have been thinking about getting a second car for months now. Gotta be something VW and bouncing ideas of mk4 R32 and GTI Edition 30. Either way it would stay standard bar a remap.Just gotta make my mind up, but VR will be staying and stripping it out for track/strip/ring use Link to post Share on other sites
vr6madmike 0 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Edition 30 would be awesome, they remap too 300 plus Link to post Share on other sites
craggsy 91 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Cheaper tax as well, which is why i'm leaning towards the edition 30 Link to post Share on other sites
H19LNE 0 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 OMG was thinking along the same lines. Probably going to get rid of my DBP MK4 R32 next summer and replace it with a GTI edition 30 only in WHITE. Link to post Share on other sites
