Anyone have a cheap 106 GTI or similar?
Discussion
My current car is no more, i need to replace it immediatly as i'm due back at Uni tomorrow. Has anyone got a cheap 106 gti, or something similar (cheap but not boring and fairly good on fuel).
Funds are very tight, so i dont want to waste the money i have on something thats going to break down. I've been searching the net all day but i've had little joy, everything that looks good for the right money has allready been sold.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Replace 106 GTI with Saxo VTS and you'll have more luck
(awaits cries from morons calling the 106 a classic and the Saxo a chav chariot!)

Yeah cheers Jonboy, never thought of that....
They would be right though, i'm desperate, but i'm just not sure i'm saxo desperate, well maybe (i'll go have a look )

Anyone for a game of spot the difference???
buy a saxo and fit 106 badges/bumpers to it if it bothers you that much!!
I'm thinking under a grand, i know its a lot to ask for but, i know there must be something out there usually i'd get a mk1 golf cab, or a mk2 gti 8v for less but they seem to be very thin on the ground at the moment.
I had a 106 rallye before so i thought i'd give the 106 gti a look. I'm not stuck on hatchbacks though, open to all idea's.

How about the 2.0 16v Citroen ZX, always loved them and there is one or two in the classifieds relatively cheap, Similar engine as the 306 GTi-6 I believe

But, even if the biggest difference is the badge, now they've been labelled as chav charriots (and now that the burberry wearing classes aspire to them as such) they've been irrevocably tainted. Grossly unfair, but true.
