saxo 1.6 faster than gti??

[aldo10]

i was racing a saxo 1.6 the other night and it beat me is it faster than the gti??? because i really didnt think so. i put it down to the fact a need a new speed sensor and the airfilter was a mess (got a k&n coming) plus there was a gap above the throtle body and it was leaking air i just fixed it today. i have not really done any mods as yet but am still in shock, how can i stop this from ever happening again??????

As much as i hate to say it, the vts will leave us standing in our gtis.

Oh well, they havent got xenons or climate control

We might have more power but the Saxo is much lighter because its French and its made out of foil, paperclips and chewing gum. Can I presume it was a VTS, as if it was a VTR it was either modified or you had something quite wrong with your car!

Just remember this though mate 3000 GTi's in the UK, 3000 Saxo's in every town in the UK

And yeah, the GTi looks better, has a nicer interior and is made a hell of a lot better.

What can I say

Safety Poor
Spaciousness Poor
Customer service Poor
Security Satisfactory
Fuel consumption Very poor

Yeah I was whooped in my old Polo GTI by VTS, and it was crammed full of chav's!

[dom596]

vts quicker? my gti must be running well, i nailed loads off em. Even did a st170 the other day up to about 80.

[loud]

yea must have been a vts, i whip vtrs daily in my 16v

[andyg]

plus there was a gap above the throtle body

where abouts is this? I experience poor pulling power ive changed plugs & leads, makes no diff.

[GTI NUT]

echo above saxo looks no way as good as the polo gti

[Grum]

i actually had a go up against a VTS on the 1/4 mile strip and it was close like!!

by the finish line, my front wheel was inline with his back wheel!

[GTI NUT]

Well if its as close as that we are all much better off with our gtis that arent made out of cardboard and plastic then

LOL! too right
my old pug 106 when fitting aftermarket speakers.........the rear parcel shelf was chip-board and the side doors were just filled with some cheap foam, lolly wrappers, tracing paper etc

they are crap cars. they are cheap nasty pikey toys which have no class. I am sorry but they are just nasty.
Even if a bit quicker it would prob brake and fall apart when you go over a pot hole!
