Nah, 106 rallye/gti are a better bet.

I dont remember the VTR being revered in its day and thats key to classic status - ala 205 GTI, R5 Turbo etc

Wakey, wakey it's a T plate citreon, and he thinks it might fetch close to 3k or that someone would pay that for the other one. no way would i even give £950 for it, so many better cars out there for that sort of money.

If I was in the market for a cheap run about I might consider it if it goes for £950. Not a classic though.

It would need at least another 15-20 years .

Some of the early 1980's XR2/XR3I are now sought after- well the decent examples that are left.

I saw a 1986 Citreon Visa GTI ( same engine as Pug 1.6 gti) being advertised recently. They are very rare now but they were nowhere near as common as the Saxo vtr/vts.

You don't seem to see many of them nowadays, probably all decomposed or crashed.

Can't see them ever being a hot hatch classic like a Mark I Golf GTi, RS Turbo or 205 GTi.
