prolly just bad fitting of the exhaust if its an aftermarket one
mangex's tend to do it quite a lot

106 gti interior is ace with the half leather seats.
build quality is also dodgy on most of the cars in this sort of hot hatch area, the sax/106 got same eurp n-cap crash test rating as the corsa B (2 *'s) so there isnt that much of a difference

I wouldnt go near a Zetec-S now due to the launch of the ST150. Watch zetec-s prices tumble.

Zetec-s maybe be less pikey than the VTR but it's a whole lot more GHEY
Zetec-s is slower in a straight line than a VTR.

mine's bangs off my heat shield, think thats more to do with how bad reno heat shields are fitted tho
