So you've been giving all these insights on how the gti and vts are similar but you've never owned one but only had a shot of a vts

yes they do, parkers and trader use pegeots own data which is timed differently to citroens, as already stated.

under normal conditions both cars do 7.4 0-60

im not sure how anyone can sit there and say a 106 gti doesnt do 0-60 in 7.4 yet a savo vts does
