If you need to be told whether or not something is cool then it probably isn't.

Top grammar tips!
Bought = purchased. Brought = relocated
Lose = misplace/opposite of win. Loose = your mum

They'll be the next 205 IMO, original standard 3 door gtis, rallyes and quicksilvers will go through the roof and be hard to find. Super cool IMO the ones on the post don't excite me too much but I like standard

Ive got a nice little quicksilver I bought for the wife while her daily went to the bodyshop, I actually quite enjoyed driving it and may even be slightly sad to see it go!  |

i aggree to disagree with the title, I'm a die hard ford guy but a 106 rallye could melt my blue oval heart, the ph1 106 is a handsome little car and now they have shook off the chav chariot image i would actually consider one, i also put my money on ph1 106's and saxo's raising in value over the next few years and becoming a lot more desireable as no doubt people will start moving properly onto 90s cars as retro's  |

How can you define what's too modern to be on this site? How can anyone, retro is a matter of opinion not fact

Been wanting one ever since I saw one at Castle Combe a few years ago.
Was on running on ITBs and just rapid!
Gold GTI would do me lovely.

Not yet,
still too many being coated in ripspeed tat, and thrashed about by teens, once they move onto 107s the 106 will start to rise

i cant do a gold gti, Chris, but my 'blaze yellow S2 XS' just screams 'COOL!' ... albeit very effeminately  bought at xmas as a bit of a stop gap, but the damn thing wont break and is actually quite a giggle to drive. ive had plenty of the things (AX's, saxos and 106s = identical underneath) but whenever i take a break from them, then get another one I'm always surprised by how much better they are than i remembered. prices are already on the up, GTis and rallyes have been commanding decent money for a while ...my personal favourite would have to be a series 1 miami blue XSi Thank god the MaxPower days are over!! |

they came out in 91, sharing much of its architecture with the AX which came out in 1986!!! Itself only three years after the 205. this is probably close to being my favourite one   1700 TU 16v Sandy Brown Hillclimb engine, revs to 9k+, power unknown but Sandy's 1600's are over 230 bhp... Weighs around 690 Kg, full satchell engineering chassis, BE4 gearbox with drenth dog gear set. Proper weapon  front wheels are 8.25x15" and covered by composite arches that are about 2.5" wider than standard... |

a friend of mine had 205's xs & 1.6 gti then 106's xsi,gti rallye, but he prefered the 205xs out of them all, i always found the phase one 306's more to my taste, here's a quick 205   |

yep, same engine builder as the 106 above, that IS Mr Satchell's own 205, weighs a little less than Dean's 106 and runs in the up to 2000cc class, 273 bhp at 8k, though does keep pulling welll past that...

I keep looking at the photos that have been posted of them and I must admit I'm tempted, I quite fancy a 106 Rallye. I reckon it would be a right chuckle to blast about in for a bit. Just out of interest fella, what Retro Ride do you own or drive? What do you consider Retro? I mean I posted my 1996 Rover which is newer than the first of the 106s on this site and it was pretty well received. |
