Vroom Vroom!!

Well, if all going according to plan, then at the beginning of January me girlfriend and I will be taking a trip down to the local Citroen garage to pick up our brand spanking new car.

The car in question is a Citroen C2 VTS 1.6i 16v.  Speedy little thing, 0-60mph in 8.3 seconds, with sporty roll bars, ventilated brakes, close ratio gearbox, 16" suzuka alloy wheels with low profile high grip tires, etc etc.




Note:  We've ordered a red one.

Nice one

We would have had black.  We bought the highest spec model the C2 offers, and they STILL wanted an extra £300 for black!  Red was the only colour that was free

Nice choice Bob, keep the licence clean when you have it

Nice choice, i've been looking at a C2 for some time now, my Saxo's taken a fair beating and it's about time to trade it in for a newer one.

One thing though, the bodywork, hmm, bugs me really, it looks much better after it's got a kit on it, hell, even the bodykit that citroen are offering looks much better.

For some reason, i've started to go off modern cars.

Well I'm led to believe the VTS model I'm getting has some sort of kit added to it, not totally sure though.

End of the day though, 0-60 in 8.3 seconds, I'll be having me some of that

Congs!

The C2 VTS should be a true joy! I've had some rides on the Saxo VTR, and if yours will iron the road half as good, well...

Did you know, however, that the main deference between the VTR / VTS of the Saxo was the manifold! You could easily almost even the power if you changed the VTR's manifold...

Anyhow, I am always a sucker for the good old 205GTI, but hey, that's because I'm over 30 :-)

Do well.

The C2 VTS has ESP or something.  Helps you in corners to prevent over and understeer

So the other 8 valves don't count on the Paxo VTS? Shame it's made out of recycled pie dishes.

Of course they do   it's just that they didn't make the big difference...

The C2 VTS is 16v, 125bhp, more than the Saxo VTS
