Has anyone driven a 2.3 petrol mk6 swb? What would be quicker that or a 125?

The petrol is around the 143ps mark, if you can get one in a SWB form they are great, they struggle a bit in 350lwb form though and they don't go sideways as well as the SWB :D

Almost all of them have LPG on them though!
