Also the Merrit parkway is great, you literally are required to pull a full bore 0-60 run just to merge during heavy traffic.

Plus it's a wild ride around some of the curves, even if you're just going the speed limit.!
I always run into leftlane campers though. Driving snooty cars.

You gotta learn how to do things without getting caught.  ;)

I haven't had a speeding ticket since '06, and I haven't slowed down since :devil:

1.4? Only if it has 4 valves. That's how the rules work.

How about two-cylindered, with 4 valves? then it would be a 0.7l engine though...

Welcome to the board James!

Oddly enough, I was at the factory your car was made in about a month and a half ago.  Great looking little cars.

Hope you stick around the forum.  It's always good to see members from all over the world.

Can't believe I missed this thread.  Nice car, James!  You Europeans have a much better selection than we do when it comes to cars. 

Too bad it isn't a VXR.  Welcome to the forums.

I have a 1390 cc 8v in my car.  So I can empathise too.

You're in the club.  Though a 2.0T is quite nippy in a Jetta.  We're talking Golf GTi equivalent, right?

Indeed it is.  According to some sources, the engine in my Jetta is slightly more powerful to the wheels than the engines in early GTIs, though my car is also a few pounds heavier, so it evens out.
