In the UK the 2L was also called the GTi so you should really disregard any reviews out of the UK.
Hmm, that's interesting. Why confuse people like that???? Would this drop the re-sale value of a genuine GTi I wonder?

VW Polo GTi = I4 1.8 Turbo (2006)
110kw @ 5700rpm
229Nm @ 1950rpm
1230kg
0-100km/h 7.8secs
0-400m 15.6

VW Mk4 Golf GTi I4 1.8 Turbo (1998, not sure when GTi started being built for Mk4)
110kw @ 5700rpm
229Nm @ 1850rpm
1324kg
0-100km/h 8.9secs
0-400m 16.7 secs

Remember that the Mk5 golf came to Australia in 2005, so the youngest Mk4 GTi is still going to be older than the Polo GTi.

Did you find out if there was a problem pete?
