Fit a Mantzel and a Unichip to the GSi and you have a 125bhp car and you have the car breathing the way it should have when it left the factory.

As already said, a GSi would just beat a phase 2 vtr, but how many real GSi's do you see these days compared to a saxo. I'd have the GSi anyday

Not many, because everyone goes for GSI kit and speedlines.

A Corsa GSi won't beat a Saxo VTS, though a Corsa GSi with an XE WILL beat a Saxo VTS

why
corsa gsi = 109 bhp 0-60 9.3
vtr = 98 bhp 0-60 9.5
i thought they were 105 and 90, cos they ain much quicker than a 1.4 sport, the corsa just has a wieght disadvantage

no
109 and 98
you are thinking of the corsa sport model and of the mk1 vtr
and the saxo is lighter than the corsa
