hi all. I just want to know what the diffrence is between the vts and the gti. When i come back from my hols am goin to get one but not sure. All i know is this. (correct me if am wrong) they share the same engine. 1.6 16v, both equally french and unreliable, both as quick. I think the vts looks more modern but the gti interior is less ugly. Is there any diffrence between handling etc? And which one should i go for? Ta

Get the vts if you like saxos better and put a GTI interior into it. Think the VTS is a bit quicker aswell.

i used the search. Nothing came up.. Obv im not a wolf. You type daft posts like that to get your post count hi or beacuse it makes you look cool? Ta Vtr01kbr that was one of my ideas but a flocked one. Its the vts quicker due to weight then?

Both the same, GTI has 24mm rear ARB and VTS is 21mm

The pug costs more because of the GTI badge.

I would rather have a MK2 VTS because they look better imo and who cares about interior, its coming out to be replaced by buckets, right?

GTI has a 24mm rear ARB as standard, VTS has a 22mm.

That's about the only mechanical difference off the top of my head.

Wolf man was looking for a little scrote with a VTS for him to buy. He's probably just a little scrote himself.

Nah, VTS (american cola) is cheaper to buy, GTI (coca-cola) is dearer

Both roughly the same apart from price

I prefer the GTI yeah

There will be a few about that are owned by old people, but you will have to look hard to find one with faeces on the seat from the elderly driver

they dont break, its so stereotypical its unbelievable

Paul
28th June 2010, 01:04
Every single one of them was french shit, and they constantly broke.

But, i actually fell in love with them.

Fixing them can be just as much fun as driving them.

I knew nothing about cars before i bought my first saxo, now i'm pretty clued up and do most work to my cars myself.

BTW i crashed a few, bought a few already half dead which i broke for parts, others i bought and sold on for more cash.

Looking back, i've had a couple that i really looked after (serviced often, drove with mechanical sympathy etc) and they didn't cause me any problems. My worst problem is taking things to pieces and not putting them back together properly and having to take them back to pieces, reading a few guides, then putting them back together properly.

A vtr will not let you down. Never. Unless its proper old like, or owned by devvo.

:S Why would you say this ?

This guy showed no indication he was a silly little chav or anything along those lines, yet you felt the need to type like a retard in some weird attempt at taking the piss out of him ?

When all he was doing was asking a saxo forum the difference between a saxo and a very similar car..

Just a note.


Not all GTIs have 24mm ARBs. Some have 22s. Think its only the ones that were made the same time as Rallyes that had the 24s, although don't hold me to it.


Oh, and they're both as quick as each other, ignore book figures.

The reason the VTS didn't piss all over them was because it's all staged and Jezza wanted to win for the cameras.
