here she is

late gollf VR6 with full heated leather and climate control








comments welcome good or bad

 

Looks in good condition, but can it replace a cos???

 

Stupid question Jeff?

If the cossie was costing to much in juice, why buy a bigger engined car.

Looks a mint car, but sooner have had your cossie.

 

Weird replacement

 

cheaper on the insurance and i would say so on the juice too , i was only getting 40 miles to £20 optimax in the cossie normal driving and the golf will run on normal unleaded Plus its a good 7 years newer than the cossie and hopefully a lot more reliable, only time will tell

 

Don't get it.

Replace your Cosworth for a vw ??

Hope you don't feel sorry after a while (do you say this like that ?)

It was such a beauty !!(your Cos)

Greets

 

what else can i say fookin shit jeff sorry but you did ask

 

Looks nice...but i would much rather have ur old cossie any day

 

cheers people , am happy for now

 

aslong as your happy its your money at end of day


but me personaly would have kept the cossie

 

no messing there ian

 

it does not matter what we think as long as you are happy with it that's
what count's

nice set of wheel's and a little drop of the suspension should look good

but not as good as the saff

 

do like the vr6,s ma dad bought 1 new in 1997 on a p plate and had avo adjustables,17s,morettes,de badged grille and it had few engine mods and i thaught it sounded !!!

 

cheers for your comments people , i know it doesnt matter what you's think cos am happy was just letting you lot see what id bought

they sound the nuts

 

40 miles to £20? was it set up at all!?!?

 

Like it mate

 

A simple set up would have sorted that out mate.

 

Oh well no worrys

 

let me be the first to let you know YOU WILL GET BORED!!!!!!

i had a MINT vr6 you prob saw it on fiesta turbo full vw history etc etc.... they are nice cars but they handle terrible, you have to rev them hard to get the power, they guzzle fuel and arent as fast as they are made out.....

i cut my losses and sold mine spent a fortune modding it to try to improve the handling to no joy they just handle bad......

sounds real nice and goes quite well when thrashed but thats all it has going for it!!!!

i sold mine and bought my cossie never looked back the cossie is better mpg!!! and its faster!!! and it handles 10x's better!!!!

really think you shud have kept the cossie...

just my opinion they are a nice car but imo not one of the best to drive...

 

foci-ben PMSL

lazy_arse_pie dont see how you came to this car as the cossie replacement, but its still a very nice car all the same, glad youre happy

 

adam yeah i remeber it well, did it do more than 40 miles to £20 ? if it beats that then thats all that matters at the mo tbh i dont drive any car i own to the limit am gettin on a bit now


nice and suitable will do me , wheels and lowerd on coilovers

red16 cheers

 

normal driving i was getting about 22-26mpg thats with a uprated TB full exhaust inc ss manifold usual stuff really and the cossie as said £20 quid will do me about 120miles at least the vr6 would do about 80

 

as long as your happy mate who gives a fook

 

that is true jonty but he should have kept the cossie because he will want another no matter what he says now

 

can only see how it goes waste a couple of grand on it then flog it

 

I'll be second, that lasted 6 weeks, inc 2 weeks in the trader- Awesome car for what they are, sound lovely, excellent example of mid 90's sporty/high end hot hatch.

Engine wise- if you dont thrash it from cold you'll be fine they go on for ever- headgaskets are a killer if you ever need to do one. Pre 96 cars rot like fuck.
If yours has leather its a highline- those BBS wheels are not correct for the car- BOTHERED YEH?? LOL>

Watch out for the ABS which is the only real weak point on the car. Mine used to play up a bit but was ok..
Ecu is 500 sovs, front wheels sensors 90 and rear 60 - some people have chased the fault for ages and never won.
I got 19-22mpg from mine.

Jake

 

nice one mate the wheels will soon be replaced

 

cossie all the way

 

looks like a green shoe box mate

 

looks good but i prefer the cossie all day, and id prefer a mk2 golf vr6 syncro

 

Vr6 are nice cars, a friend of mine also has one (215bhp tuned)

But, swapped for a cossie????

Sorry, but i think it's not so smart....a cossie is a rare en special car. A VR6 isn't. And, a cossie is fast (an good tune-able) car


But if you're satisfied with the car, then it's ok

 

Its alrite prople Adam is a homo



Nice ride Jeff but could have sold me the Cossie!
