Nah I haven't actually! Haven't driven many dubs...pretty much only the fast ones hehe.

I was like like a go-cart ... but just as bad as in many ways as good.
Well at least the one I drove, just reminded me how massive a leap it is between golf generations.

I'm not saying they're bad, just not what many people expect them to be.

i have! cept it wasn't 16v, so my powerband is 3000rpm lower...

I'd love to have seen a progressive development -

Lap times just with brakes, then with suspension, then with engine.

Love the way they rev the thing to 8000 just after rebuild - hope they ran it in for a bit first

Be nice to know the cost of the install too!
