Anyone know anything about these cars?

Thinking about getting a 106 gti in the next few months, and the satria popped into my head last night.

Only thing I know was lotus tuned suspension, recaro seats. 125bhp?

Not too sure how ever....

If the lotus tuned suspension on that is anything like the corsa sports, you'll get sea sick very quicky

mate of mine has one, handling is impeccable, hes currently in the process of turbo'ing his.

Apparently a lot of the parts are interchangeable with evos

Superlite - In all seriousness, are them Ibizas as fast/good as you make out? Never thought much of them to be honest.

That was my point

If it cant keep up with my 115bhp and OE suspension, then its not fast

Good cars.
