Would I regret selling my car for a vr6

[audi-tone]

Hey fellas, I'm tossing up wether to sell my gti and move to a bora vr6.
I've been searching and working out pros and cons but I wouldn't mind some opinions especially if someone's done the same thing in the past?

1.8t vs vr6 always comes to mind but what about other things like handling, creature comforts fuel economy ect.?
Any input would be great!

If you want 4wd look at S3s. Lots more power and better economy. You can have a go of mine if you want to. V6 sounds well but that's not the be all.

I agree with Gav.
The 8L model S3's are nicely priced now and go hard from what i have seen at happy laps.

Ask any of the Bora lads when they last did 8 per 100 and 700 ks on a tank, with 250+hp on tap.

I will say it again though, the V6 sounds well.

Keep the Gti and put a frankenturbo on it

I own (and love/adore) my Bora VR6 - i even had to buy a vr6 head gasket keyring. So trust me when i say the 8L S3 is a better car in prob all aspects other than looks (subjective) and the sound (don't care what you do to the pipes on a 4cyl turbo, it will never sound as horn as a VR6).

8L s3 = they DO go hard as hell too, even with a mild stage 1/2 it will fly.

Thanks for the input guys. I do love the sound of the vr6 but an s3 has been on my list too. I'll keep a lookout for one I think. Or BT the golf in the future

Did you get a bigger tank Gav ?? - or a shorter right leg ...

Driving to work on the highway is mainly responsible. Doing 80ks a day, 6 on 3 off. Going through traffic doesn't make it appreciably worse, like going over 110 does.

I am seeing a chiro about my short leg though

For easy tuning potential S3.

For more 'involved' tuning potential + sound. Bora V6.

Tough choice!

Agree there mate tough choice so much to say about each , im a massive forced induction fan but cant agree more about the narrow angle v6 note, im like a big kid in my passat. Bora is a tough car and great engine, great potential for great looks, there is a few crackers around. No doubt about the S3 either though great gains for less coin.
Yep tough choice, however you have a mK4 Gti, made tough and great engine too with endless potential. Im also a huge fan of Mk4 gti so could go Mk4 R32? tough mk4 with awd and the engine note to boot.
Good luck with the choice mate

Iv got a 4mo bora. I love it i did have a rexxy before but even tho a 2.0 t is fun i still prefer the bora. An s3 can be made to look sexy but to me a bora looks and sound better especially when its got a bowser bonnet bog rims and lowered.

[gringo_54_oval]

Now an mk4 R32 is a my next upgrade after the 4Mo

[Brisbane's Bora]

R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32 R32

But really, If you put the price difference between the Bora v6 and R32 into the Bora, it will be nicer all round, and they look nicer too imo.


Oh and i'm still happy to be your old parts receptacle. Send them all my way

Get the Bora and the fuel companies will thank you!
