    Why doesnt the Polo Gti have the 1.8T badge on it

    Hi,

    We all know that the 1.8T is used by Audi and VW in so many cars. Just about all of them have the 1.8T badge on it. But why not the Polo Gti? save money? weigh it down?

    The fewer badges, the better.

    When I get the courage, I'll debadge mine.

    The 1.8T badge was an Audi thing. I've not seen a VW with these as stock.

    cos anyone that doesn't know the cars will probably laugh if they saw a 1.8t badge and think we're full of 5hit. (until we dust em, jokes)

    The VW Beetle has a turbo badge on the back of it.. I think the passat has a 1.8T badge on it as well. Other VW cars have their engine size badge on them, 1.6, 2.0tsi, tdi etc etc

    Every other golf has its engine designation on it except the GTI.

    The skoda has the 1.8T badge as well.

    The 1.8T badge might give the little GTi a little more street cred.

    I like the fact it only has GTI badges, rather not broadcast whats under the hood
