Nope, and nope. If it were, I’d be getting it, but I still have the Golf 2 Syncro for 4WD fun. [8D]
@Padrig – You’re right, 75BHP feels quite good in the car I test-drove (which was almost identical to the one I’m getting, actually) the little 3-cylinder is lifeless at low revs, which is to be expected from such a small displacement, but once you get the revs up, it takes off.
I was surprised at the sudden burst of power, actually…it almost felt like turbo lag, lol.
Anyway, with a kerb weight of under 1000kg, it’s a fun little go-cart, just like the Golf MK1 was. Honestly, it almost feels like you’re driving a modern Golf MK1. Very cool actually.
