Which French death trap?

[leeds_182]

Similar money for both but out of these two which would you choose?

Saxo vts turbo - non forged running low boost on standard internals (around 180bhp).

Or

S1 106 Rallye in white, tin top, standard 1.3 rebuilt, all standard parts included.

 

[Jack!]

Saxo if I wanted silly fun, but the 106 is 10x cooler, looks tidy too.

 

[Goodj]

Rallye.

1% less likely to fall apart within 5 miles, and hasn't got all the stickers to prove how much it's had the s**t kicked out of it already.

EDIT: Also, if you took the Rallye and de-modded it, it'll actually gain value.

EDIT2: It's also a lot nicer

 

[Philip.]

Saxo and remove the stickers

 

[banther]

Rallye 100%.

This is true. The head says Rallye, the inner chav says saxo.

If the Saxo didn't look the way it did I'd say that one, but let's be honest it has probably been given death every time it's been driven.
For the safe bet, get the Rallye.

 

[Jack!]

You normally punt them on pretty quickly anyway don't you? I'd have the Saxo for a few months, because a 180bhp Saxo is gonna be a laugh.

Probably worth more in bits if it breaks anyway.

Did some research on the paxo and it was done in 2012 so has had plenty of time to blow up. To be honest it would cost me nothing to put back to standard (with the exception of the ride height) as parts for them are plentiful.

I've been known not to keep them for a while if I don't connect. Saying that, I've had my audi nearly five years and my other Rallye for nearly a year so I'm not doing that bad.

 

[imprezaworks]

Out the two, saxo. Youve got a rallye

 

[Adamm.]

Rallye.

Edit, actually if you have one then get the saxo I guess lol.

 

[Matthew]

Why would you want another Rallye? Your black one is mint. But on the other hand, I wouldn't want the Saxo either.

Can't you find something else? Ha

 

[leeds_182]

I like French.

 

[Goodj]

306 Gti-6?
Surely they cost less than water by now

Ok, go for the paxo & de chav it, sell the barry boy bitz off & make a few quid back.

 

[Gally]

Rallye, people will look at you in a different way.

 

[Jack!]

Don't get the Saxo hate, remove the stickers, get some wheels that aren't black, then you've got a standard looking Saxo with 180bhp.

Rallye is a much cooler car, given, but he's already got one, and a 1.3 Rallye vs a turbo Saxo? Probably won't blow up, and if it did it's worth more in parts.

I care more about fun than image.

 

[Goodj]

Don't get the Saxo hate.

In my experience, attractive girls would drive 106's
and fat munters wearing McKenzie would drive Saxos

 

[Adamm.]

^^ Do or did you not own an mx5 at some point? Lol.

 

[Brookie.]

You've already got the mint black Rallye mate, so Saxo.

De-chav, have fun, shift on for a little profit!

 

[Goodj]

^^ Do or did you not own an mx5 at some point? Lol.

Sure do. Never had a 106 or Saxo though.
Or a vagina.
So not sure what you're driving at here

 

[Daz_RT_04]

Saxo + De-chav for me.
180bhp will be a giggle and tbh, the wheels arnt too bad?! Are they speedlines?

 

[Adamm.]

Its just you was stereotyping saxo owners yet we all know the stereotype mx5's have .

 

[Goodj]

Its just you was stereotyping saxo owners yet we all know the stereotype mx5's have :wink:.

I wasn't stereotyping, just going from personal experience. Totally different IIRC

 

[Smiffyboy1990]

De-chav the Saxo, standard VTS alloys in Silver. 180bhp would be pretty fun tbh.

 

[leeds_182]

Saxo + De-chav for me.

No, supposed to be some rare performance rims but the name escapes me. Silver vts wheels would look the shizzle.

 

[Nick_Leeds]

Feed the inner chav. Saxo.

 

[Simon_16v]

No, supposed to be some rare performance rims but the name escapes me. Silver vts wheels would look the shizzle.

Wheels look like Compomotives.

 

[Craig]

Saxo. Change a few bits and have some fun

 

[bashracing]

saxo and fit the turbo kit to your rallye,
rims look like speed line RL7

 

[Mr Burns]

Rallye.

Said it for me.

 

[leeds_182]

Yea

Yeah, that's the rims.

 

[bashracing]

raceline rl7 not speedline
getting my 'lines' mixed up

 

[leeds_182]

Just test driven the boost bus.

 

[Philip.]

How was it? Lol!

 

[The Russian.]

Just test driven the boost bus.

Verdict?

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Just test driven the boost bus.

How was it?

It'd defo be the saxo for me, but as has been said, it'd have to look standard. I'd happily have boosted Saxo for a laugh for a few months

 

[Matthew]

Yeah, and......?

 

[leeds_182]

It made a lot of boooost tish noises, was slammed, had an ice install, 6x9s. I felt 17.
