GTE vs GSI

[Tim]

i have a white k reg 1.2, which is currently undergoing an xe conversion, my initial plan was to GSI rep it, but after having a look around the features section im finding myself liking the look of the GTE much better.

was just intersted in what others prefere.

i personally think the squarness of the GTE bumpers and lights etc, seem to lend themselves much better to the overall shape and age of the car.

all the novas i have owned have been mk2, but i think a step back is the way forward.;)

cheers

hmmm personally i prefer the gsi but as you said gte's have been growing on me too, what colour? sounds stupid but alot of colours look better in gsi and others as a gte, maybe im just weird

its a white one, i think the white looks especially better as a GTE than the GSI. Plus after having a real good look i reckon the rear bumper on the GTE looks much better with the flared lip at the bottom.

Mk2 for me, I don't like the "I've just been rammed up the bumhole" big-headlight look of the Mk1 lol

Plus the Mk1 has a shelf instead of a dashboard.

laser blue GTE ftw tbh

[boyle_46]

White GTE FTW , although laser blue with the fogg light grill looks pretty mean

[scott.parker]

I like both mk1's and mk2's.... BUT if it's white, then it's got to be GSi rep.

[Tim]

im just not feeling the gsi after having a good look at the GTE, i like the way the bottoms of the bumpers are grey and kind of link the skirts with the bumpers.

i think it just looks a bit harder.

new club member by the way. its a much better site now, what with all the filth etc lol.

imo the gte is more raw, the gsi is one sep to a cosa sport...
i remember seeing a white gte in a scrappy once, totally rotten, and abused, but it still looked special and "hard"

[Tim]
