Riz Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 Firstly welcome to the forum Nice 206, its got the GT body kit on hasnt it? I used to own a 206 GT a few years back. You`ll need to work out your buget and think about running costs and insurance. the V5`s do have a nice engine but the 1.8T engines will return better mpg usually.

tuscan Posted January 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 yeah its got the gt kit fittedand ooks nice. am not realy worried about runnings costs and i wouldnt realy want to go any higher on the insurance than the v5. as for budget i was hopeing to swap my 206 for my next car. so which car is best performance wise?.

[/ QUOTE ] Well i would say the 180bhp would be nice and the Golf`s are solid cars..... why not visit some local dealers and take some test drives?

N3WOB Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 Welcome + I'm with Riz..go for the 180 if you can get one, if not the 150 can be easily tweaked to give you that and some Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuscan Posted January 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 to be honest i thought the 180 would be best but am still torn between the golf and seat leon. does anyone know which is the better car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N3WOB Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 The Cupra 180 is a great car but the mark IV would get my vote. If your budget can extend to it, have a close look at the Cupra R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuscan Posted January 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 is the 180 tweakable and does it have same engine as the cupra. i understand that the cupra has the same engine as the TT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N3WOB Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 Yup & its the same 1.8 block as in the mark IV golf, TT, A/S3. Hsave a look here www.auto-amd.com & you should get a better idea of what can be done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R32Ash Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 [ QUOTE ] just looked at the anniversery model on the classifieds board and it looks awsome. pity i cant afford it, my budget is only between 6-7 grand[dont laugh] or if someone will swap one with me. [/ QUOTE ] Before someone else jumps on this I will. There's no way that anyone here will laugh at your budget - it's not that sort of place, thankfully. What you will find though are plenty of people with opinions about what you should spend the money on. It's all good! (Well, most of it!) Ash.
