lobotomy Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 That's Fair play mate! My pal had one and it was pretty rapid! What would you say is better though without bias? the Glanza or the GTi? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
badsanta Posted October 3, 2006 Author Share Posted October 3, 2006 to be honest. id love the engine and reliabilty of a glanza, but in a gti, the handling of the gti is much better, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 they are definatly potent wee numbers for sure!!!!you can make the glanza handle just aswell if not better though bro Quote Link to post Share on other sites
badsanta Posted October 3, 2006 Author Share Posted October 3, 2006 i just had springs on the gti, and i have trd shocks and springs on my glanza, id have to spend sum big money to get it the same as the gti, im in love with the sweet swirling from my turbo though so it makes up for it, loli totaly disagree, you would only need to spend £200 tops including fitting o get your glanza to handle aswell as your old 106, ive had two saxos by the way Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shelly_star Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 i see alot of 106 quiksilvers around, bumped into one today on the motorway, thought it was my mate because they all look the same modded, then i realised it wasn't him, doh!! i booted it as fast as i could lol.I always wanted a quiksilver as the GTi was too expensive Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Stevie_B Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 to be honest. id love the engine and reliabilty of a glanza, but in a gti, the handling of the gti is much better,i had a toy with one of these and the guy was all over the place, still fast enough cars though Quote Link to post Share on other sites

badsanta Posted October 4, 2006 Author Share Posted October 4, 2006 surprisingly mine was very reliable all my friends were falling apart though, thought it was i good time to sell!!!!ive raced a couple since and wasted them, i suppose i can still corner it as fast but i think i just felt safer in the gti, it loved being sideways and you could hold it, where as the starbo feels abit twitchy, all ads to the excitment i suppose, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 i know what your on about mate and the stearing feal is leagues better in the french box Quote Link to post Share on other sites
badsanta Posted October 4, 2006 Author Share Posted October 4, 2006 yeh the steering feels sturdier and heavier just like a go kart, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
