Anyone else a fan of them? Gets overlooked a lot with people prefering the Mk1 & Mk2.

This is stunning imo with a vento front end sitting on TT comps:

Boring in what way? I find my mk2 16v boring, so might be a VW thing?

Dad has a very low milage black colour concept with 17" rs4 reps with diamond cut face and black insides, mk4 style headlights and kamei grille. It's got the common 2.0 8v cutting out issue atm though Seats in them are nice and comfy and warm you bum up a treat!

Someone at work had a VR6. The gearbox went and he got a Focus 1.6TDCi Titanium. He has said the Focus is just as fun to drive. Says it all tbh.

IMO the vento front end only suits rat style mk3's. A simple de-badged front grill with mk4 style lights, clear indicators/fogs, smooooth rear and slammed on TT comps
