is this true? saxo vtr?

[bibby]

saxo vtr

1996-2000 the vtr is 90bhp?
2000-2001 98bhp
2001-2003 100bhp?

and is it true that you can only get a gold vtr in the years 2000 n 2001?

[bibby]

and the speedo goes upto 120 from 1996-2001 and it goes up to 140 in 2001 - 2003?

[MintedSaxo]

140 from a vtr standard? dont think so m8

[Paul]

Hes on about what the clock says.

Yes that is true about the speedos

Mine has 140 on clock, 52 plate.

There isnt a VTR with more bhp than 98 standard.

To find out which model you have and how much BHP use the search button mate, theres a thread that tells you how to find out.

saxo vtr

1996-2000 the vtr is 90bhp?
2000-2001 98bhp
2001-2003 100bhp?

and is it true that you can only get a gold vtr in the years 2000 n 2001?

1998 - 1999 90bhp
1999 - 2001 feb some were still 90bhp
2000 onwards 98bhp

some 2000 models were still having the 90bhp silver top put in them

[smiith]

all year VTR go to 145 on the clock, my 99 plate one does, and my 03 plate does :/

[bibby]

sound thanks lads n ye i was just talking about what the speedo said lol! so could i get a gold vtr with 98 bhp by any chance?

Not sure about the gold paint, sorry :n:

yeah, mine was a 90bhp but seen a few 98bhp on here. People say cant notice the difference between 90 and 98bhp on the road.

You can my mates 98bhp always beat my 90bhp mk2 by a good coupel car lengths.

think only did them for the year 2000 thats why its hit and miss. wouldnt worry to much like. 90bhp takes better to mods unlike the 3 plug 98bhp.

[smiith]

Think your chatting bubbles matey :P

Not sure about the gold paint, sorry :n:

dont think so, i can go take pics, the 03 plate has 140 in the number on it, then an extra 5 marker after it, and the V reg has 130, then an extra 15mph in the marking dots, as the newer ones go up in even 10s, and the the older goes up in odds.

old
10
30
50...

new

20
40
60

id go take pics if i could be arsed to go outside.

doesnt mean the car will go that fast

[bibby]

sound yer ive seen a couple on 2001 gold vtrs which i asume is 98bhp

[smiith]

fack it, im gona take pics to piss on your fire!

[GrantW]

My 97 VTR had the same as smiiths, 130 then 3 extra marks so 145 in total.

[smiith]

il correct myself, my mk1 99 plate says 145 on the clock, my mk2 03 plate has 140

pics are just sending to computer :)

[Steve]

sound yer ive seen a couple on 2001 gold vtrs which i asume is 98bhp

if they are registered after feb 2001 on the v5 they will have the 98bhp as it was to do with emissions and the tax is a shit loud cheaper than a 90bhp model

couldnt remember when they stopped the gold saxos must have been 2000-2001 cos they didnt make many, not ltd edition just rareish

[The_STIG]

my silver x reg was 98bhp and there is a noticable difference between 90 and 98 bhp but ya guna struggle to get 120 from the 98 bhp model anyways vtrs only do bowt 115 tops i think i could be wrong

[Paul]

You dont really need to go and take pictures smithy.

I've had two VTRs, they've both gone up to 140.

Brother has one that goes to 120.

I thought this was standard for all VTRs, But seems like im wrong..

Stig, the clock will probably go past 120 as saxo clocks are about as accurate as the petrol warning light..

[smiith]

oh shut up you tart lol

[GrantW]

What I dont understand is why they changed them to go up in even numbers, all the common speed limits are odds (30 and 70) so they should be more visible than just a line in between 60 and 80 lol, my beemer clocks are the same, does my head in.

[GrantW]

Only other clocks are the 1.1's which stop at 110 i think.

[smiith]

[Lozza_vtr]

I've seen V Reg and Y reg(my own) Gold saxos.

I dont recall any other plates tbh, so you could possibly be right!

But then again, even if you saw a later plate it might have just been sat unregistered for a while!

Interesting, but the answer could only come from someone with the information, no point going by plates in this case.

[b0t13]

mates W reg furio stopped at 120 whereas my v-reg furio stops at 140 lol, both mk2, wierd..
