Seim Old DickHead I’d rather have the mk3 much better shape and the vr6 high lines are going for a fair bit of money now. Better still I prefer my Mk1 Gti.
I have a 306 and adore it - but to most friends and family, I‘d recommend the Golf as well. Few people can appreciate the incredible chassis of the 306 and then the Golf is from another planet when it comes to all the fit and finish details. For me? I’ll keep my 306 forever.
As a gti6 owner yes the 306's RFS engine is very reliable, but the golf's 20VT engine is also super good. They won't die easily and can hold a nice amount of horses on stock engine components.
You are literally putting a 306 GTI, a car with rally pedigree and born to be a Rally missile, against two cars that are just "lets go shopping" cars xD
Josef Christian Bartoš haha I drove a MK2 aswell. It was good at his time, but the reality is, its a very dangerous car. Very bad EuroNCAP crash tests. Also the typical GTI version of the MK2 (which I had) had a massive fuel consumption.
If they can get performance and economy from a diesel, it's worth having. Nobody can beat a small sized, German diesel engine especially in a Golf, Passat or even Audi A3/A4.
So many mk4 Golf GTIs still on the road now. Never see any Pug 306 or Fiat Bravo GTIs or non GTIs for that matter...slower isn't always the worst choice. Besides a remap can see late mk4 Golf turbos get 210hp with no other mods.
I'll admit that I don't necessarily like the way its back is cut when you look at it from the side. But I really like the way it looks from behind. And the rear lights have a nice configuration too. The round red lights with indicators in them are really nice. Other manufacturers have tried that since then but they either don't look good or you can't really see the indicator's orange light when it's on. There's no such problem in bravo because the brake lights are separate...
can anyone here help me naming the the song that's heard in the end of the video (from 7:38 to 8:04) I d really appreciate that..I ve been trying to identify this song since a long time and found it in this video by coincidence! thanks
I didn't own a Mk4 GTi but I did have the 170bhp V5. That was a terrific engine, but the rest of the car was a let down. Especially in terms of reliability and handling.
No they're not, I've owned 3, Audi A4 1.9TDIs and I can say that the engines are absolutely bulletproof. I bought my first one for £350, with 150k on the clock, and it run with only 1 fault, until the clock reached 234k. (the fault was a snapped timing belt) Then I bought another one, with 140k on the clock, no faults up until 200k, it had no faults at all. Then, my current 2002 A4, has had no faults and I've done around 22,000 miles in it. Try tell me 1.9 tdi engines aren't reliable.
Ive bought same 4 series Golf with 200000+kms and now its nearly at 300k+ and belive me as i use Cars like worst then bitches golf got all my respect ✌️ most reliable engines
yeah? and HAVE you driven jtd's? my bro had a 400 000km honda with rover engine - only diesel pump changed , no tubro issues, regular service. my dad use to have tdi - 2 turbos in 250000km and i drive a jtd - no turbos, no pumps, WAY economical... pls dont.. i know these engines... not to mention the 2.5 tdi ov vw is probably the most expencive engine to run called "dushegub" (soulsteeler) in my country because its more expencive to service than the entire car... and thats EVERY year.
he picked the best car, at that time the golf mark 4 was the best car on the road I would have done the same... but the fiat bravo had the coolest look
@AdrianoCROST Well man sorry but there are a lot lot lot more 306 on the road than fiat bravo/brava across all Europe (or all over the world if you prefer). Honestly when one 306 goes to scrapyard, it is about 10 times more Bravo that will go there at the same time. The 306 is a very reliable car, the Bravo isn't, never was, and never will.
The pug was and always will be the king of its generation
I have a 306 gti 6 years of fun
Sure i'll take the Peugeot 306 GTI best looks faster and much much more ...:)
Gti6 was an exceptional car for its time. Still my favourite car
I own the HDI still, and its been the best car, out lived everyone of my mates VWs funny enough.
Superb chassis. The last of the lively hatches before things got numb and boring.

Bravo is the best looking, best sounding and best handling if you mount a sportpack in it...
and if you make it a bit lighter its also the fastest

Carlos Freitas in the garage 🙂 relaxing
Basically 306 is a god
I said 'basically' not god
peugeot is the best!!!
Lol no
i have PUGEOT 306 and it is best
The peugeot 306 GTI6 is anyones best friend apart from when my radio decided to break today fuck sake 😂
See, if you took the 5-cylinder Bravo you wouldn’t need a radio ;))
The 306 was great. Low down and looked great. Mine always needed a repairs though
Peugeot is the most reliable there it turned out in the end, not to mention, it drives the best and looks the best
As a gti6 owner yes the 306's RFS engine is very reliable, but the golf's 20VT engine is also super good. They won't die easily and can hold a nice amount of horses on stock engine components.

Golf MK4 - Best Golf ever.
Thats true!... mk5, mk6 look weird
No, Mk2 is the best

Also the typical GTI version of the MK2 (which I had) had a massive fuel consumption.
yes... I can belive it:-(
+nixxxon18 you mean Slowest golf ever right?
306 is the best
The Golf's engine is a nuke... With an ecu it gets over 200hp and over 300nm of torque
The fiat's too. put a new exhaust and maybe an ecu, and it will sound godlike-clear winner for me, as I'm the guy who prefers sound over all
@@joshe2420 Those are 5-cylinders aren't they?
@@user-fr5rd1sz5d yes they are, that's what makes them sound so good
@@user-fr5rd1sz5d not the ones that can be remapped to 200hp.
Thumb ups !! Fiatists
I need a practical hot hat over a go fast hatch
and right there Clarkson sealed his fate 😀
They uses same runway track back then top gear never change also clarkson .
The green GTi was scrapped in 26/05/2018, The Bravo last MOT was in 2010, and the Peugeot changed plates so idk
How do u know 🤔🤔
If they can get performance and economy from a diesel, it's worth having. Nobody can beat a small sized, German diesel engine especially in a Golf, Passat or even Audi A3/A4.
@murilo1899 I'm fairly certain it's "Dreams" by The Corrs, written and originally recorded by Fleetwood Mac.
So many mk4 Golf GTIs still on the road now. Never see any Pug 306 or Fiat Bravo GTIs or non GTIs for that matter...slower isn't always the worst choice. Besides a remap can see late mk4 Golf turbos get 210hp with no other mods.
That’s because the 306 gti and fiat bravo hgt sold in far less numbers.
You posted this 2 years ago and golfs are still amazing 😉 I have a 1.6 16v and is going strong
I got a 99 306xsi with 250,000km. Still going strong.

The 306 S16 has the best chassis compare to the fiat bravo and the golf
False, the fiat is the only one with fully independent rear suspension.
@@Menda_Lerenda It's a french chassis so it's sporty, very playful and above all very fun
