Welcome dude. Service regularly and keep the hammering to a minimum and you'll have happy days. to be fair i nail the vts quite a bit and ive only had minor problems. Some can take it some cant.

I race all the time and I have not encontered any problems, I have a furio but it's still a saxo and fairly quick for a 1.4 just don't crash coz it will crumble easily

Another Newbie here. I'm on my second VTR now, bloody love em, just the first had been beeaten up before i got it so everything went wrong. Like its been said already, it also depends on how the previous owners have treated it
