I've been building a retaining wall out the back, and during a break I comparisons between 4motion and clio sport/cup.

I let your thread go, because I had to go back to wk and the links have been dropped.

Then I noticed this morning how lonely this thread was so far...

All I can remember atm, was Nurburgring 4motion > 9'09" & clio/cup III 8'47"

I don't think the 4motion had turbo on it tho'

Sorry.

sounds like you need a double decaf latte with a twist of lemon

for the money you will spend on a golf, especially in oz, there are far better options out there, in my opinion. golf's are like a disease over here in england, and i have driven quite a few, and honestly not a very special car at all. 2 positives i will point out are that the diesel models have really good fuel consumption (but sound like a tradies ute) ,and the German build quality is pretty sound (although some would argue that because of the gross mass production of golfs in recent years, build quality has slipped quite a bit..)

hope this helps.

hi if you can afford it go for MK V GTi instead. a much better car and built quality is superb.

and if you can afford it go for ones with DSG.

they are great cars Vee dubs. hopes this help

With a nice reacharound on the side

ive been in a mkV GTI and it was quick

was a 6 speed manual and pulled through all the gears

if you like them then try get one

but agree that you for the money theres a lot of competition

These guys are spot on.

I have a MkV GTI as my daily and I'm one of the fussiest rasters when it comes to cars, always get sick of them after a year or so, but had my GTI for almost 4 years now and love every second I'm in it. And that's amazing for me. They're brilliant to the point that when 3 years came up, I went looking for a replacement and just couldn't bear to be in anything else. I even drove a number of E46 M3's as this was something I really wanted, and the Golf was just a much better all rounder. Was really dissapointed in the M3.

Prices are coming down a bit now with Mk6 out, so not sure of your budget, but MKV is brilliant. I went looking at the new GTI and even the new R recently and cannot change it. And when I bought the GTI, I actually went to the dealer to pick up an R32 and ended up putting a deposit on the GTI, so that speaks of how good I think this thing is

Still need the Fatboy in the garage for the weekend blasts though.
