What do people think to this situation...

I have the choice of:

Mk3 2.0 8v Colour Concept - black, leather, very nice, 75k £2,500

Mk4 1.8 20v NON turbo - black, 100k, newer car with smoother engine £3900

I'm currently swaying toward the mk3 but i don't know why...

Your thoughts?

MK4 will be slow but that said the mk3 8v aint no rocket ship

Try a Mint MK2 16V or a Mk3 16V.

Orrrrrr a Corrado

16v is a no go due to funds on insurance, i just can't justify paying over a grand anymore on insurance

Just want a classy cruiser with a bit of poke to it

I do yearn for a rado or a mk2 though

A mk4 turbo is out of the question to be honest the car is too much in the first place, much the same with a gt tdi sadly.

Looking at a £4k budget max really

Before he bought his MK V, Darren used to turn up to work in his one every morning and sometimes confused it with joe's when trying to find it after work, you great big silly.

You'll be telling me you've never seen a black 3 cyl diesel lupo next.
