1.6 gti cabby standard! wots the top speed?

lets face it with a roof or not :wink:  a standard mk1 gti or cab is hardly gonna be setting "bluebird" esque times for land speed is it? unless its mega modded

the cars can be used and driven faster than "other" cars purely by the drivers skill and the mk1`s agility and relative power to weight ratio…. top speeds arent anything to go by anyway…..the 20-80 mph is where all the fun is in a mk1 in my opinion :wink:

I don't know where they sourced the figures, but Practical Classics buying guide lists the 1800cc GTI hatchback and cabby with the same top speed - 116mph.

 I find the best speed in my Sportline is about 20mph so people get a chance to see what a  8)  car it is

I can always go slower for wooders if he needs to keep up :wink:

Wooders is particularly sensitive when it comes to performance comparisons, and cabbys.....cabriaulait (Dave) I believe, has sometihng to say about this....

yawn

:shhh:  its still an open wound………….
