Those wheels are bigger, and by the looks of it the tyres are s different size, look like 17s with a 40 tyre.
Maybe its a shop?

My bro and 2 of his mates have em, and the realistic facts are:
Pro's - Fast, loadsa goodies, very sexy, handle like on rails, keep value, 6 speed box!, much sought after car, response to induction + zaust is incredible
Cons - Unreliable (drive train +electrics are terrible), hard to work on, expensive parts (thru pug anyway), poorly build quality (as with all french motors), Rallye was faster, 6th is much more of a m-way cruising gear rather than a pulling gear.
Matt
ps: Yes, an aftermarket alloy company did a run of 17" cyclone copies, but are no longer in production and very sought after.
PSS: Believe me, then do 0-60 in LESS than what the book figures say, and will show over 140 on the clock top end

if you like your luxurys such as air con,leather seats leccy windows etc then get the gti-6 but if your purely after speed and handling then get the rallye,both are fast cars and handle well but the rallye is a lightened version of the gti-6 and doesnt seem to be as many about so id rather the rallye
