My other cars are GTI's
My other cars are GTI's
While the cav is off the road, bought the black GTI to run around in.Goes ok although not as good as the Cav, only 138bhp compared to the 200plus in the v6 but handles nice.The mrs drove it and got jealous saying her Corsa 1.2 SXI was slow so i picked up the blue one for her.
Sold her Corsa in record time the other sunday,put it on gumtree at 10 am, at 2pm it was sold and gone.
Bit sad though Mr & Mrs GTI.
Anyone else got the same car as their other half?

Hmmm 206Gti...
Never had one, had a 205 Gti 1.9 which was great fun but never had a 206..And no, my other half has a licence but no car and there is no way she is driving the Cav..

Free Parking is a bonus, leaving my Cav in a carbon dust filled carpark is not.....

These are our first Pugs,was a little dubious as I think most French cars are a bit flimsy but so far so good.Reasonable performance for no money,mines an 02 plate,Mrs is 04, both bought for £1000 each.Mikebmth wrote:Hmmm 206Gti...

My Mrs hates driving the V6 so only rarely takes the wheel.I think the 200 hp scares her as the throttle response is so good with the light flywheel.Mikebmth wrote:Hmmm 206Gti...

Got the gti back together today and started up.replaced the awkward bolt with a longer hex head bolt and spacer, took about 30 secs to tighten up, simples.
Re: My other cars are GTI's
Had to do the clutch on the black GTI today,we used it to go to Cornwall the other month and it started squeaking in the clutch area while we were there.Got back ok and took it off the road until I could fix it.Read up on a 206 forum that this noise leads onto the clutch totally failing.
So took the box out and found one of the damper springs was falling out and had been rubbing on the flywheel bolts.
Fitted a valeo clutch,bought it online from carpartsforless,about £20 cheaper than anywhere else and super fast delivery.
