spadam 7 Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Bit of a strange question to ask but im after a mk3 vr6 and would like to no weather the handling on a 5 door is any worse then that on a 3 door. I no some cars dont handle aswell. Of course im guna get coilovers for it and polybush it but does 3 door / 5 door make any diffrence.cheers Link to post Share on other sites

gavinvr6 0 Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 i got a 5 door as it was cheaper to buy and they are also cheaper to insure and after test driving 3's and 5's you really wont tell much of a difference when it comes to handling about town, and once coilies and poly's are on i'd say it would be better than a standard 3 door. where in pompey you at fella? im in havant and would be happy to let you look around mine to help you make your mind up. after all everyone needs to experiance a vr in their life time and if i can help out for the good of the 6pot brigade and vr60c then who am i to argue lol Link to post Share on other sites
