I think theyre lovely. As are the mk5's. Remap and your away.
As for the Mk4, they are lardy and nothing on the newer ones. However, my mates with just a remap and filter is quicker than both a 182 and ctr. Tried and tested loads of times.
I can get the job done cheap for a full spray (£400). BUT to be honest i like the blue and gold. Just prefer 432. I'd just rather the freshness look of a willy 3 without the phase 2 downsides..
As said, 1 & 2's are 449 and 3's are 432. Its actually quite different.
Basically i much prefer phase 2's and 432 but then i dont want ABS or Sunroof. I know of a pretty poor state Willy 2 so it got me thinking. Maybe just a respray in 432? Hmm
Plus i've already had two 449's..
Cheaper? Clutch? Sequential and RWD FTW. As for reverse? Pah!
Not putting this down mind as it is crazy. 10 out of 10 for your mate! :D
yes please..haha

nice but i dont understand why you'd put a 1.8 fwd in a mini?
bike engine and rwd is the only way to go imo. Balances the weight better too.
Still awesome none the less though..
Your all talking like 106's are low mileage and reliable which 9 out of 10 (like the williams) arent..
106 Gti's break more than any car i've worked with if my mates are anything to go by. I'd argue a williams is built much better imo.
Haha course Malice is right. Anything else would be stuuuuupid!
Not a bad car mate. Hope your happy. :) Vtec change is a bit pants in these imo. Not like the Type R's but still good.
A lad i know has one the same but a coupe. Same colour etc. He has a mani, exhaust etc spent a fortune...
Tbh i do find they handle well. Predictable. I find the traction control on them awful if it kicks in. i turn it off everytime i'm in the car unless its wet..lol
Straight line though and out of corners they pull fairly well really. Plenty or torque. Low in the rev range too.
Leave them wheels imo.
You'll prob find theyre quicker than the clio's in a straight line quite easily but dont handle as well. Most people disagree on here but i've tested it a million and one times. My old dear has a 330 which is my whip most of the time. Its just theyre smoooooth! RWD ftw! ;)
I've always taken everyone's word on here that theyre not as quick as a 172 etc due to weight. My mates felt quick tbh but i was sure due to torque.
Well about 10 times tried and tested his standard other than filter and remap'd 02 GTi pulls all be it slowely but constantly from 182's. Not a...
Well he's had a Revo map. Its completely changed the car tbh! It only has the map and a filter and it sees off alot. *cough* 182 * cough*
I'm tres impressed.
