modern cars... made out of tracing paper!
had it repaired and had it back since,
still having problems with dodgy insurance repairs tho ah well

oh and they must have updated the ECU or re-flashed it as i no longer have 215bhp :(
am in the middle of claiming on that, among other things......

its a Peugeot 207 Sport 1.6 VTI
not quite as powerfull as the ibiza.... altho im currently working on that.......
all usual mod cons, electric mirros, windows, traction control leather interior xenon headlights bluetooth (parrot kit) etc etc
my plans are to mod this one alittle more than the ibiza... first order of buisiness is to get it lowerd and sport the brake calipers out

Would have gone for the GTI or the 150 thp but after having a read they seem to have many engine problems... so went for the mini cooper engined vti

120hp standard even tho its an NA engine its suppost to make 135hp with a remap... Full miltek system and breathing mods should see the nice side of 150hp

Only issue I'm having is there's next to no torque at the bottom end, really have to rev it to get some power out of it I'm hoping a custom map can sort this and give it some much needed low down opmh!

Handles nice tho and the traction control isn't too intrusive but its there when you need it like 70mph on a wet motorway!
