Ben Seabrook 4 Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 yes they are awful ! but then the world would be boring if we all liked the same thing wouldn't it ? and no they are much much worse than a mk3 in every way possible I completly disagree! the MK2 is much lighter than the mk3' date=' better handling, quicker as standard. plus flip paint is gay [/quote']hmm well only about 75kgs lighter by the time you add in the vr engine so not a lot ! hardly better handling as most mk2vr6 owners just stick the heavy vr lump in and dont upgrade any of the suspension components ! most of them I have been in handle terribly ! I am pretty sure the vr didnt come as standard in a mk2 so I am not sure there will be a standard mk2 quicker than a standard vr but I will agree flip paint is very very gay Link to post Share on other sites
