Fantastic cars! Cheap, and can easily be a RS killer BUT... They are a tin can!

[AlexG]

Identical looking to mine.

 

[D4N13L]

Mine was identical to that until a police car t-boned it at a roundabout

 

[Craig]

thats nasty

I had a few blasts with VTS/GTi's when i had my old 172...They were significantly slower!
That said craggy's old one was nippy!

Shocking damage!

 

[SBV116]

ahhh well. i will take my chance!!

 

[jim cook]

Yea saw that when i posted my saxo crash on there very nasty

I had a Vtr and working in a car bodyshop know how bad they crumple but you dont think about that at the time:clown::clown:

 

[DannyR]

HE SURVIVED THAT?!

 

[joebristolgym]

Mine was not much off a Clio 172...but guess you have to pay for that speed with only 120bhp....and that's in the structural rigidity in a crash!

Just don't crash.

vts isnt far from a 172, a fairly good match id say, 172 may just nip it.

ive had 4 saxo's in total, 1.1i, vtr, vts supercharged and a another supercharged vts. in std form my 172 doesnt feel much quicker than a std vts...

IMO of course

Christ.Why would you want to post that.

imho any car that crashes above 60 mph will look like that

Torque. VTS drivers worst fear.

I raced Dave in his old VTS and it was closer than you'd think once it in it's power band. We did a few blasts too... it really highlighted the difference in torque though!

IIRC, VTS' are circa 115lb ft... some 25 to 30lb ft short of a 182, not to mention the 182 develops that figure lower down.

Hi! From 80 onwards, Chris pulled on me by about 10 or so car lengths to about 130 buttons I think I hit. I was 2 up though but still, to be anywhere close to an RS, you need a few more lb/ft. Saying that, mine was near as dammit standard.

 

[blackpool_john]

ha, saxo ncap 2.
clio 182 ncap 4.
i sold my saxo vts for my 182. the build quality on the saxo is shocking lol.
