Thumbs up

Very well built and very reliable IME of 3 years of owing a K plate. Quite thirsty and some will argue under powered for a 2.8. Handle well as standard. Nice to drive.

MK3 or Mk4?

Personally - I'd opt for a Corrado VR6 over the Golf

Superb, had one for nearly 4 years, in that time I replaced a brake light for an MOT.

Awesome engine, had a Mk3 golf but didn't handle very well as standard.
Would go for the Corrado these are 2.9 as apposed to the golf 2.8, and they handle better.
Best option Vr6 Engine in Mk2 Golf
