I can't see any of the pictures at work but the girl I share my industrial unit with has a couple of Golf Cabriolets, so I did a bit of measuring up and I think it would be really tough to fit a flat four behind the rear wheel line - there is virtually no space at all. Even the Fiats have more room! Mid mounted might be better... :o

Don't start mentioning Mid engined Golfs - I have ALWAYS dreamed of a Mid engined Mk1 Golf GTI - Now how SICK would that be  ??? :)

Volkswagen built a MK2 Golf with two 16V engines, it was raced at the Pikes Peak Hillclimb in 1987

I have to admit that I think this car is rock hard! And this car would have been A BIG hit at Bug Run Sweden!

Yupp - the more I look at it the more I like that car. I love the way it stands - way better than any old-school german look I have seen. It`s cool that even a old Golf can look this hard with the right tricks.

This is way off topic since this car do not even have a aircooled engine but talking about looking hard - geezus;

There is a Golf II out where I live that someone has done the engine in the trunk deal.
It's nice, I suppose. But I wouldn't build a car I have no intention of driving.
I've ridden in it a few times and it gets hot as hell and can't handle worth a damn...
Just a bad idea all around. Not into it.

But looks very cool. I saw it in Rotenburg/D and sadly they had "some" problems and that all weekend long.
As I know there isn`t an flat four engine installed if I remember right, even note the water-recompensetank on top...

Greetz !
