Nice car the Bx Gti , but you'll always wish you'd bought a 16 valver , I bought a Gti once nice thing with black leather but after the 16v just lacking . Sold it and got another 16v sadly no leather . Actually side by side. there's not alot to separate them but driven back to back the valver everytime for me

I know, I know. I'm officially an old fart now.

I was working so hard on the lead up to my 50th I think I blew a few fuses.

!=!! leave Phil alone










(he's younger than me :cry: )

I found my two 8 valve GTi's better as daily drivers than the 16 valve
but for sheer smiles per miles you cant beat the 16 valve

Would love a nice Bx16v to go with my Zx16v but alas I don't think I have much hope of finding one for sensible money but I can hope
