just wondering if anyone thinks its worth swapping a vtr for a vts? apart from the extra 20/30bhp, bigger alloys and double the insurance group is there any real difference in the cars?

I don't think there is any point nat, i mean come on you can tweak the vtr to get that power ish, if you know what you're doing, and You'll change the alloys anyway. They are nearly identical in looks, in fact i can't think of a difference, so in my opinion no. Not worth it.

you have to look at what you want really.
Are you going to leave the car standard and dont drive fast and more or less potter around place to place, if so keep the vtr.
If you want that extra bit of speed then the vts.
If you want to go down the route of massive alloys and big bodykits then you may as well keep the vtr.
If you want more power then get the vts, to get the vtr to vts level is not easy or cheap.
Obviously there are exceptions to what i have saidsmileys/smiley17.gif

I agree with scott. If you're a speed freak then the vts is the obvious 1. The money you'll spend getting the vtr to near to vts power would be better used tuning a vts, but if you prefer styling then stick with the vtr (which isn't exactly slow) and make it different. There's so much stuff about to mix and match with, your car will soon look unique. Look at oz's car. He hasn't stuck on big bodykits or massive wheels but his car looks very good and you'll not see another like it. smileys/smiley4.gif
