Yes they do go like absolute stink for an oul Citreon!!!!

Remember being in one doin 150 (well on the clocks and it got there no sweat) across the carriageway a few years back :laughing: That was only with a chip and an exhaust too!!!

Lowered, job done :laughing:

Car looks well - some nice lowering and maybe a nice wheel would work well :grinning:

massey no plans as such yet, it has a near new exhaust on it so not gona change it, enjoying the quite life compared to the mongoose on the rs (im turning into a grandad! lol) .lowering a little will happen eventually but not a for a good while, the back of her sits quite low as it is, front is high as hell!

thanks for the comments

i thought the 1.8's are VTR's and only the 2.0 16v XU10J4RS with the 5 spd 'box is the VTS version :confounded:

Nothing like a GTi-6 tho :p

Great cars though, handling is immense
