Good Points

Absolutely excellent, I've chipped the engine, added a k+n and Janspeed exhaust and man, does it fly and it sounds awesome. It turns heads where ever I go and makes BMW drivers sad when I blow them away on the Motorway.


Bad Points

Interior is dull but with new seats and by spraying the plastic bits a much more happy colour, it looks mint.


General Comments

My Citroen Saxo VTS does 0-60 in 3.7 seconds and 60-0 in 3.2 seconds, it does 143mph top speed and sticks to the road like glue, even in sharp corners at 100mph. It has to be the ultimate small car, well it would be if the interior was better as standard.

    "does 0-60 in 3.7 seconds"
    A very interesting observation, perhaps a misprint for 7.3 seconds?
    Otherwise we're talking over 24ft/sec for which a stripped-out Saxo would need to average about 220kW. You could convert that to about 350bhp peak, and if you can get that from under 200sq cm piston area, you can come and work for me.
    IMPRESSIVE.
    There is a documented 1/4 mile run for a well-modified Saxo VTS at 14.6sec/94mph, from which you'd guess a 0-60 at around the 7 second mark.

    Not too sure about the 3+ secs either!!
    As I have a Citroen Saxo VTS and it's chipped - viper ind, scorp exh and Kent cams.
    It's nowhere near that!!
    LOL!!!

    I got a Saxo VTS with a sportex full system, dastek unichip and a performance air filter. dyno'd at 153bhp at the fly with 112lb-ft torque at tdi power tuning. My cas runs 0 - 60 between 6.2 n 6.5, and 1/4 mile in 14.8 seconds. It's one of the fastest Saxo's in my area, and still a lot slower than yours! Your figures must be a little bit wrong, or did you rev it up on axle stands? lol
