VTS and GTi are essentially the same car.

Both drive the same, so its really down to which one you prefer the look of.

You can get white GTI's, but not VTS's.

Yes the VTS wheels will stay, and go gloss black, and it will be lowered and generally have the black and silver / black and red theme.

I also like the 106 gti a tad more but there more expensive and need more doing to make them look decent IMO.

A modified 106 will always look better than a modified Saxo in my eyes.

The bootlid on the Saxo is all wrong, numberplate higher than the lights? what were Citroen thinking?

I loved my 106 GTI, it was built like shit but very cheap to repair

Ram air intake and Piper exhaust will make a considerable difference too

I have to agree with that.

The 106 is by far nicer on looks, but seen as ive driven both of these, id say the Saxo imo, i hate Pug clutches, but im looking for a Pug myself

Get the phase 2 VTs, then you can buy the front Morettes i have lying about in my bedroom, for cheap aswell

They are essentially the same car. Just depends which one you prefer on looks, I think GTIs tend to be a tad pricier as they are the more popular choice.

I love how people say the 106 is put togther beter

saxo and 106 were built in the same factory.

If you strip a saxo down enough there is pug stamps on it.

You can get a white VTS. Matt Dale had a super charged mk VTS pushing over 250bhp
