[quote][i]Originally posted by GT4Brody[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by MrDeCat[/i] I am a little biased cos I drive a 106 gti but prior to buying I was trying 2 choose between at that exact same line up! For a little breakdown: The Clio 1.8 16v is actually slightly slower than the 106 and because of age etc can be quite expensive... the 5 GT Turbo unless you get a minter WILL blow up! The Punto GT is very fast on the move, if you compare its 30-50 to all those others I think it has the edge - but it handles like a tank! The Escort RS Turbo is just toooooo pikey, The Civic vti is a fantastic car and my numero uno choice... tons of parts avaliable but I was put off by insurance group 15! The 106 rallye is fantastic too drive but a little basic and a tuned up corsa 1.6 16v is nice but ultimately not as nice as a tuned up corsa 2.0 16v ;) Sorry for the essay! :D [/quote] Not bein funny mate but the r5 engines are actually very good, the only reason you here of so many blowing up is because people turn the boost right up without uprating any of the engine components eg head gasket turbo etc. If you keep them at sensible boost or upgrade the engine according to boost they are still very reliable, also they tend to get abused, they need to have regulat oil chnges and services. oh and by the way i would go for the 106, but i am just biased as i have just bought one:P i also have an r5 turbo too:thumbs: [/quote]
