Steve.C 0 Posted March 20, 2010 Well almost! my partner has decided she wants another track car and I have been trying my best to steer her away from getting another 106 GTi, she has owned a 205 1.9 but due to the well known kangarooing she didn't like it, an MX5 was her top choice (soon changed her mind on that ) she is looking at 306 GTI-6's and the occasional Saxo VTs, I'm trying to steer her to getting another 205 but this time one with a gti-6 engine, is there anyone local to me (Warminster) with a 205 gti-6 who would be willing in a few weeks time to perhaps let my partner have a little drive? there will be beer tokens available of course!

I have informed her of that, don't want a standard 1.9 though as it has to be quicker than a 106 or she wont be interested Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshpug 1,622 Posted March 20, 2010 if the 106 was standard tis neck and neck with an 8 valver Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve.C 0 Posted March 20, 2010 if the 106 was standard tis neck and neck with an 8 valver I know, which is why I said the 205 will have to be quicker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackherer 543 Posted March 21, 2010 an MX5 was her top choice (soon changed her mind on that ) An MX5 would be my choice over a 106/saxo/306 and maybe even a 205 unless its a well sorted example... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jackherer 543 Posted March 22, 2010 RX8 engine in an MX5 would be good I always thought... RX5? I'm sure I've seen some with RX7 engines but I can't recall any with the later more reliable engine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
