Photo 4 2.6 CDX . Lost and won that one on an EBay auction the winner sniped me in the last 30 seconds , then the seller message me to say I could have it . All I added was the boot spoiler ( genuine VX and it was in the same colour as my car , also brought a set of Saab 16" alloys . Ho and I changed the complete wiring loom in the head lining because the wiring harness for the sunroof was broken .

I’ve got a mate who has a 2.2 GSI, he loves it [emoji1]
Hooooooooooooooooooooooooo yes . I run a turbo X which has 2.8 274 BHP turbo nutter
But may sound mad but the GSI with a modest output is much more fun
Dose it the old school way , no turbo , just grunt and growl !
Thanks. Nothing special, just a standard 1.8 this , enough go for daily runaround if you shift the gears a bit but very reliable with 180k on the clock.
