True, but I have a mate with a 1.9 205 GTi, he drives it sensbiley compared to me and the bloody thing is always breaking down.

I'm with Josh on this one.
I'd buy it, get it running nice, and keep it standard. I would even keep orange side repeaters.
A lot are being modified, even with alloys.
I don't think people see where him/I are coming from. We driver pretty slow cars, and anything will be better. I'd love a GSi, standard to drive around in.
EDIT: If I had the land etc to keep it, I would be going to look at that probably.

Beware I went to see a red gsi that looked good in the pics like that one but when i got there it was a bag of shite with more rust then paint. And that one was asking £900 
Took me ages to find mine and even that isnt perfect
Drives supercharged Tec with torque

Agreed.
I'd love a Gsi, I'd maybe tune the engine but keep the exterior completely standard.
