Saxo VTS or Lupo GTI
Hi guys. MY bro has just bought a Lupo GTI and claims it is faster than a VTS. Just wondering what your take on this is? It did feel fast I gotta say. He said the 0-60 times are not a true reflection because the VTS hits it in 2nd gear wheras the GTi has to go into 3rd. He also claims the GTI holds its power in the higher gears a little more than the VTS.
Woud like to get the two cars in a drag race, would be interesting.
So if you were in a 1mile race and your life depended on it, which of the two motors would you climb in?

Saxo is quicker, but only just.
The Lupos are suprisingly quick. Probably due to the fact they aren't as heavy as you'd expect, they're only just heavier than a Saxo.
Saxo definately handles better though. Lupo's not bad at that though either.

Pretty close match, would be down to driver skill on most roads. B roads the Spaxo would take it though. Girls would prefer the Lupo
