    Default What you lot think of this car?



    Thinking about one of these (XSi) or a Rallye as a replacement to the Nova.. Its pretty nippy with 100bhp and should be cheap to run and has awesome handling etc :D

    What y'all reckon? Should i go for it if so which one XSi or Rallye (essentially the same car just rallye handles slightly better but has no elec windows etc)

    Can get either for ?1,300 8)

    The 106Gti got highly rated on 5th gear a while back. Not sure how different the Rallye is to the Gti, if it handles the same as the Gti then go for that.
