| 16v mk2 - im on my 6th mk2 now and wont get anything else unless i find an S2 i want. had3 8v's a 16v and a 20v turbo one. If you want speed then get a 16v but if you like the driving style get an 8v and itll be relatively good on jiuce too, fast enough for what you want and as for reliability imo best car vw ever made |

| The engine in the black car was dynoed at 152 so is a quick one. I know it is quick as ive been in the car the engine came from, sort it out james and buy it. Think she needs a new ignition module - well known fault on mk1's and mk2's. Then MOt then away. Buy her then buy some nice wheels. |
