Nice little car gis. I like the color and licence plate

dingo · 03-13-2005, 07:13 PM

I think its a great little car as I told you last night, and the colour really is very ncie

I hope you continue to have fun with it - I'm sure you will

THANKS GUYS for your kind words

BADMIHAI - it handles and goes very nicely,it IS quicker than the saxo by quite a bit i think.the front tyres need changing so when they are done im sure i will see a difference in the handling

TT - yes it should grant plenty of fun,it has done already and i only had it like 36 hours,LOL

TransAm2001 - as said above i think it is quicker than the saxo,more power means it has to be.lol

jon - i was told the power rating of 103hp is wrong,ford have a habbit of saying they have less power than they actually have.and the rating of 115hp i can imagine bein true,and with this ECU i can imagine it also bein around 120hp.its a nippy little thing anyway

dingo - of course i will have fun with it

as everyone has mentioned the colour i think you have all figured it is imperial blue that is used on the focus RS,which i think makes the car look great and stand out,plus its fun to be able to say it has the same as the RS,lol

one thing i absolutely love about the car is the gearbox,my god im in heaven with it.its just so perfect,short shift.....with sum spirited driving and changing quick....the changes are really quick with this gearbox.

I dont think a Fiesta can come much cleaner looking than that!! Really nice car, good colour, and I bet its quick, Nice one!

As I told you earlier, the color is awesome. The wheels are pretty sweet too!
Have fun wiith it, I'm sure it's a blast! Now, it's time to mod it.

Congrats dude!

Hey mate, I must say again, Congratulations!!!! Love the colour, and well it is a great leap forward from the saxo, not that it wasn't nice...but this one is muuuch nicer!
anyways, get ready, next year i'm going to europe so i'll be paying a visit, and I want a ride in it! lol

Thanks daggernite,666fast,fedezyl and everso.

stradale · 03-14-2005, 05:42 AM

Very nice car, gis! I like the look of your Fiesta. The colour, the wheels, the front grill, the fog lights etc. Sporty, but not over the top. Just perfect for this car. Have fun, mate!

Evo · 03-14-2005, 05:43 AM

Very nice looking car Danny... I really like the aggressive look it got from the front bumper.. and the color is perfect. Although I liked your Saxo a lot back in it's glory days this looks somehow better.. . Now send it to me to test drive it to see if it is safe for you to drive it.

..

Congrats again Danny on your new car.

gis · 03-14-2005, 06:08 AM

Thanks guys,and i will have fun with the car i can promise you that

stradale - as you say the car looks great with the rims it has,the bodykit that it has etc etc,its one of those cars that looks nice without adding other bodykit parts replacing the one that is on.i think the rims look great as they are which is why im not going to change them.and the car lowered 60mm on the stock rims just looks great

evo - lol you want to drive it,come on over feel free..of course in exchange i will need to test your evo.....you know,just to see if its fast enough for you,lol
your right though the saxo was good.....but if you live here you wwould know that the only thing that actually made it look different from all the other saxos was the colour,no one had it that i ever saw.....but now i got this car and i just love it

cooperluke · 03-14-2005, 08:14 AM

Nice little ride. How many hp it develops?
Oh, and here is Portugal, the Peugeot 106 is not S16, but also 106GTI, and the Saxo is called Saxo Cup.

gis · 03-14-2005, 08:23 AM

Thanks cooperluke,the hp we arent 100% sure on,book figure is 103hp,but it isnt as the power is usually underated,as jon_s said on the previous page the average number is around 115hp,and with the re-mapped ECU there is a chance it could be around the 120hp area

dingo · 03-14-2005, 08:35 AM

gis, you have to get yourself a new sig already now

fedezyl · 03-14-2005, 08:36 AM

Here the 106 is called the S16 and the Saxo VTS for the 16v version, we just get the french versions here.
Hey mate, next year we should make a little trip to the nurburgring lol

gis · 03-14-2005, 08:45 AM

lol the nurburgring.......if i have the full suspension kit by then i may consider going,plus a few extra "go go mods" lol

dingo - yes i need a new sig,but i suimply suck at making them,lol
