He didn't have it that long, he's gone to Australia and had to sell up.
He did look after it, its pretty loud, very well looked after though.

To be honest, Gti's are built for it.
I got in mine today after taxing it - not driven it for 5 months.
It just wants to accelerate.
I was trying to short shift at like 3k rpm, but it just wanted to keep revving, so just nailed it to 7k odd for each change
The car loves it.

The only thing the Corsa will have over the 106 is AC and pedals that arent tiny and offset
