thank you, the colour is one reason i like it so much,there are a few saxo's around here and they are all the regular blue,that goldie colour and a couple black ones.i have never really seen another colour like mine.

i have heard about the chips for the VTR and was told it didnt do much power wise.to tell u the truth i havent really looked into it in detail but got told the redline was raised from 6200 to 6700rpm,not sure if thats correct though

Yeah, most chip raise the limiter in the ECU as well as smoothing out some of the spikes and stuff in the power and torque curves.

yeah it may be worth gettin,but £300 for a chip is quite expensive IMO.but ill have to see if i look into it,im just dreadin the time the first mods go on and i feel the car goin that bit quicker than it used to,and then i will want more,then after a while ill just think " wonder what a VTS is like"
i was lookin at the citroen dealership the other day,my dad was checkin out the new C2 VTR and GT and i was lookin i his used cars part in the back yard and he had a VTS for sale for £4995 and the part that shocked me most which made me think it was worth it was it only had 18k miles on it and the car was 3 years old

Not a bad price but have you seen what you can get for £5k these days? Lots of machines that are faster and more tunable.
