I'd go for the Bora then mate. I love the shape of those, and never understood why VW went back to the Jetta name.

Really? Cause I never understood why they used Vento and Bora, when they kept Jetta in the USA.

Bora sounds a lot better in my opinion. And Jetta reminds me of the hideous disaster that was the Mk2 Jetta, a Mk 2 Golf with awful rectangular lights and a saloon boot drafted on the back  :sick:

Mk2 Jetta was epic. I had one with a 2.9 vr6 lump from a Rado. Handled better than a Golf too. :)

Aye, I'm going to put it into a service as this is due in October and then sell it first.

I'd be made up if I could get £7k for it

Spotted a Bora on AT last night. 2005 plate, only 29k Full VWSH.

Wish I had £4k now!

I agree, and whilst spec wise it's a nice car. I'm sorry but it's just ugly.  :evilgrin:

That dealer is, well, not someone I'd be buying a car off.

That enough to stop you?

The brakes are shocking and the steering woolly, though i've had one on the 155mph limiter with the top down...
