1.2 & Gti-6 - Just cleaned.

[Budgie]

Bit bored at work, so I thought I'd upload a few pics.

No special products really used, and apologies for the inadequate camera.

* Waits for this thread needs lowering comments! *

 

[Bluebeard]

GTi-6 is going to be my next track car. Love them.

What sticker is that on the boot of your clio??

 

[Budgie]

M25 ring.

Yea, I'm seriously thinking about buying this one when he upgrades.

To heavy Dan

GTI6, awesome. I miss my Rallye. It was a rattly bugger, but more fun than anything I've ever driven. Supercharging is relatively cheap too.

 

[Android]

Has the Clio been raised ? haha.
It looks soo high.

I like the Gti-6 mate, theres a white one like that on my street. On its arse. Dont know much about them.

 

[Ali]

Don't see why people man off over the GTI-6...it's not that fast, not that good lookin, soft core sport...Meh! I'd rather the 1.2 tbh!

 

[Timmay]

loving the gti6!

Drive one Ali. My rallye stayed with Riz's 182 easily, and was more 'fun' than the Trophy. Not as capable, but not much beats drifting off an island at speed. Steering is fantastic, engine sounds great, just so much fun.

 

[Ali]

Not convinced. Same motor at the VTS Xzara and thats not RS pace...And i seriously doubt its as much fun as a trophy!

 

[Budgie]

A 182 is quicker than the one above, but not by much at all.

The steering and the feel on the 6 is awesome. The easiest and most controlled lift off oversteer I've ever experienced.

 

[Ali]

Why would you want to compare lift off oversteer! LOL! It's hardly a selling point!

Don't remember that on my Trumps cards!

 

[Budgie]

Lol! No, agreed. But it certainly is fun!

 

[ForceIndia]

6speed box versus 5speed in the VTS. Makes a big difference. The lift off oversteer is fantastic, in the 182's they snap, but the 306's just gently drift. Honestly, it was more fun than the Trophy. Can't carry the same speed (not much can!) but huge fun.

 

[Rich]

lol @ the 6 banter.

I guess people man off over the same reasons as the Vee Ali!

I would not buy one though.

 

[Tigger]

This thread needs lowered :rasp:

Tidy cars mate!

 

[Darren S]

What's the year on that 6? 1999 or something? Nearly ten years old and yet I would happily buy that before any of the current Pug range - even if they were the same value.

Where did Peugeot go wrong? The GTi-6 and Rallye (a 106 especially) are still on my list of cars that I'd love to have a blat in.

Yep, 1999.

Couldn't agree more, they have made arguably some of the best hot hatches ever. Yet, seem to have done nothing much in the last 5 years.

 

[Leeshez]

Very nice indeeed.

 

[Rich]

D.

1999- With the coming of 206 GTI 138, worst Pug ever to where the GTI badge, things just got worse and worse.

 

[JR]

Would rather buy a ralye to track

 

[Mark One]

whats the power, engine, 0-60 of these gti-6s then?

nice cars mate.

 

[ForceIndia]

whats the power, engine, 0-60 of these gti-6s then?

nice cars mate.

167bhp, not sure on 0-60.

 

[Tay]

Ive always liked the GTI 6.
There used to be a black one round here a while back & it went like shizzle, sounded good too.
Was quicker than I expected it to be

 

[Josie172cup]

whats the power, engine, 0-60 of these gti-6s then?

nice cars mate.

167bhp, not sure on 0-60.

parkers quotes gti6 0-60 as 8.5 lol now tbh thats piss poor

the engines a 2.0l valver

 

[Rich]

Ignore book figures for old Pugs, they always unlike other manufactures tested with Half Payloads to keep insurance groups down lol

 

[Nigel]

Whats the difference with an S16 and a gti-6

 

[Rich]

S16 had a engine out of the late model 405 Mi 16's - 155 brake opposed to 167 and a 5 speed box.

 

[Nigel]

Ah, cool. Saw a really nice S16 recently and thought it might have been the imported version. Cheers for that rich.

 

[Rich]

They did not make many, year or two's production as the Phase 1 GTi 6 soon came along.

 

[GarethM]

my brother used to have a gti-6, have to agree with ali on his comments. never liked it tbh.

much prefer the drive of the Rs-1 to it.

 

[ForceIndia]

167bhp, not sure on 0-60.

parkers quotes gti6 0-60 as 8.5 lol now tbh thats piss poor

Trust me, as Rich has said, the 0-60's are underquoted. My rallye kept with Riz's 182 all day long, and he doesn't hang about.

 

[Josie172cup]

i know no better

iv only seen 1 white one before and it was quicker than i expected

but not too quick for the cup

 

[205_1.9]

My GTI 6 is for sale at the mo if anyone is interested. http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/637372.htm

Great car tbh and never had any trouble. Thing is i had a 205 gti before and that kinda spoilt me.

 

[joe24safc]

really nice

 

[scott7912]

I have owned a FF182 a GTI6 and now a Trophy.
Yes the GTI6 and my FF182 were fun and they were just as quick in a straight line but the Trophy is just different class, much more fun on the twisty bits, dont get me wrong the 6 was good on the twisty bit also, it was better than my FF182.
Trophy all day for me, if i did have some spare cash it would be going towards a 6 to use as my daily drive.

 

[scott7912]

167bhp, not sure on 0-60.

The times in the GTI6 were done with a fully loaded car so the 0-60 would be slow, this kept the insurance down. I would say real world 0-60 would be about 7 secs. There is loads of people on the GTI6 forum that have achieved this on track/drag runs.

 

[scott7912]

They did not make many, year or two's production as the Phase 1 GTi 6 soon came along.

Not sure how many S16's were made but over the 3 phases of the GTI6 there were only 3000 or so made. Mine was a Astor, 1 of only 60 made.

 

[Alan]

Tidy..
