Golf R -v- Golf GTI

[SilvrFoxX]

Well, the same could be said about Golf R. Why buy an R and then spend all that dough to cure under steer and improve handling? Just buy a drivers car FFS

I agree.. Mine is stock and happy

[Rob_R]

Now this Thread ( below) seems to wrap up the whole R v GTI conversation.. why would you buy a GTI them mod it with all the R parts

Just buy an R FFS

No there's an idea Rob... you could start something! I have a set of Standard GTI Tail Lights I can sell you for your R! You can be the Cool Kid on the block with the "Retro" Halogen lights...

... problem is, you'll probably feel like a fraud and spend most of your time wishing you actually had a GTI!

Yeh I'll have to jack up the suspension too. I will also end up with a tail shaft that I will no longer need. Anyone selling their tartan seats?

Hope you have good eyesight and nimble fingers.. going to take a while.. but as a trendsetter you have to set the bench mark high for retro stardom

I guess that makes me an inspiration... after all, I had the forethought to buy a GTI in he first place!

Don't forget the Instrument Needles... our Lexus Hybrid has Blue Needles... you don't want Blue Needles, we all know you want Red! Face it... Red = Fast = Cool = Chicks!

Yes we all know from the advertisements that Blue is what they use to demonstrate the use of female hygiene products as it is better to look at and appreciated by all.. The GTI is the real deal throughout
