thinking of getting a gti...help please

[HEVY-nova]

its not vauxhall related, but i am replacing my beloved nova with something just as old skool but faster. mk 2 golf GTI 16v is my choice at the momoent, just wanted to know a few things first...

whos been in one, any good?
how quick, what bhp?
any other suggestions?

[brian]

there ok. not eacctly earth shatteringly quick or anything.
Stick a 2L in the nova and you would have much more fun.

the 8V has more pull low end, but 16V eats it top end.

same with 8 and 16V novas lol



Id say, test drive afew, see if you like it. get a few VW mags, maybe go to a golf forum etc


your call. or even try a scirroco/corrado ;)

[mikeoxford]

youll always come back to a nova ;)

[HEVY-nova]

ive never been in a nova wiv a 2litre conversion, but it may have 2 be thought about,as a gsi probably aint quick enough, and im going to be put on my mums insurance, so i may be able to afford it
