Hiya mate, Welcome to the forum and good luck with ur test...relax and take it steady and all will be fine
Aslong as you treat your car right (service it and don't rag it into the ground)
It will run forever.

welcome to the forum!
get a 1.4 16v as it has 100bhp as standard. very good car.
the build quality of the mk4 is solid.

my old mk4 was very reliable, just a small thottle body problem. otherwise, fun!
enjoy!

you won't be gettin an 16v unless you're
a)old or
b)rich
welcome!
if you're young - the 8v 1.4 is a nice motor to have

cheers guys, any where i can find a decent body kit for one.
I've seen a few on here i like.
I found one ages ago on here and i cant find it now. It was in the gallery i think, it had a really nice kit one it, i think it was foreign. It was red, had lexus lights and crystal lights on the front.
Prob doesn't help, but if anyone has any idea of where i can find it i, i would be grateful
I am more likely to get the 8v model because of insurance.
