Pesky gearknobs with the aluminium flaking off, i used to get bits stuck in my hand 
2 of my mates owned them, and both snaped conrods sucking water in, im unsure of the location of the induction kits on them, but i think that was to blame
mine was an xsi 16v I had the gti6 gearknob pesky critter

White ones with spoilers and 17's are allways dodgy, they are slower than red r-reg corsa xe's to, this is a proven fact.

This the same for 106 gti's/saxo vts'????

this ones had the l.a.d head conversion and a load of other work back in 2000, i think ill get it a fresh remap and give it a good going over and it should be back to its former glory, theres a reciept in the folder stating 208bhp but i doubt it will be near that, still a fast fun motor though!!
