yeh 90,130,150 and they did do a few 170 tdis which were badged as a GTI.

my mates got the 130 passat, which pulls nicley.

our mk5 is 140bhp, which for an everyday car is more than enough (tho a remap for £250 will see 200bhp and nearly 500ft/lb. and apparantly better fuel ecomony?

wouldnt get the 90bhp tho uses more fuel as your pushing it all the time!

my mates got the mk4 gti 1.8 turbo, and my mk5 gt sport i dare say is just as quick.

Hi the wheels, I sand blasted and then painted in VW Stien Grey.

the fronts are O.E with 195-40-15

the reas are also stock, but have been bannded 2.5" (basically cut the wheel in half with a laser and weld in a band of steel!) with 205/50-15 tyres.

bit guttted really as i had the car slammed to the floor, but after fitting the rears i had to lift it 1.5" to stop the tyres ribbing, so now its got that raked stance.

Was out in the vr6 last night with the wife and 2 mates, and some saxo vts boy tried to have me, his face didnt look too good seeing an 18 year old golf 4up totally cain his "racing car"
