Unless F2 Ed's is an 8v?

must be, only reason a 106 gti would be faster is if it was an 8v. 16v is one quick motor, not much from a few years ago will touch it small hatch wise

that is one of the best looking mk2's i have seen, looks cracking

I would echo the 106Gti comments, i have blitzed them on and off the track - definately a lot quicker than them... really nice example - is that the FK grill - di you just unclip your 16V badge and clip it to the FK one - it looks great, love the plate too.

Yeah they just unclip and the FK is exactly same measurements as the OEM grille, minus the S. just becareful, with the badge possibly being 10 years old, the plastic might not be as strong, one the clips broke on mines (theres 3, 2 upper and one lower)

Like it crezz, like i said to you though, needs to either be lowered level front or raise the back end, thats all thats letting it down.

Although, your exhaust tip does seem to stick out an inch and a half or so?

Love the colour! I couldn't find one on a facelift that colour so ended up with red!

Lowerage looks good...I would say go lower at the front and raise the rear!

Lol Red is a wicked colour and I haven't had any doubts however the blue is quite special!

The front can easily come down a few mm for a better stance ...

thanks for all your comments, makes me feel proud :D

im winding the rear up now that david told me what i was doing wrong. thanks bud ;)

its a janspeed cat back exhaust, does seem to stick out quite abit but i cant seem to get it to tuck in any more???

and i deffintly think the beeza 16v is quicker then pug 106 gti, ive wasted many, especialy some chav in a yellow one.

The 106's do handle well as they are like a go-kart. But not quick in a straight line as the GTi valver......no way.

i raced my mates rally, and the power is much in the favour of the ibiza, although the pug went round the roundabout like **** to a blanket

outright power wins at the end of the day :D

Crezz i'm just going to repeat what others have said, thats a really lovely colour and the car looks fantastic as always.

On corners the 106 GTI is a weapon, however its out of ideas on a nice fast straight from my experience with the cordoba and the local cruise lads. I like what they can be capable of but i would never buy one, it looks just too girly for me! I'll have a nice muscular looking cordy anyday.
