Where's the mk4?

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Shame there was no mk4, although not the best (with exception of the 25th Anni model) at least it got a decent engine - the 1.8T.

Agree, never been as keen on the mk3.

yeah the mk3 always seems like a diluted golf stopgap, loved the mk4 1.8t some happy B-road days in one of them and its total lack of traction and understeer
