Comfy, roomy, big boot, good styling, V6 roar!
Fuel consumption, tyre wear.
I have had 2 Vauxhall Vectra GSi saloons, 2 GSi estates and 1 GSi hatchback - all brilliant.
I have also had a Saxo VTR, and a VTS. I have had 3 RS Turbo's, 1 scooby RA, Mondeo ST24, 2 Golf GTi's (2.0l), 2 GSi Astra's - 1 old style and 1 new style.
Whilst all these were great, in my honest opinion the GSi/s best - well no hang on the Scoob was but that was expensive to maintain (crank, fuel, tyres!), but the GSi's are good fun and very comfortable. they wont set the road alight but they motor on. The only way you will get a GSi to perform better is replace the flywheel, change the exhaust system and remove the cat, and dont replace the filter with a daft induction kit - worst thing you can do on a 2.5 GSi.
Now, if anyone wants to challenge me in my golf with a scoob, GSi, Mondeo, Saxo then please bring it on - it is a Mark 1 GTi - but dont be fooled :-) and I mean on a track where real cars are not on the road! And if anyone wants to challenge even further I can always bring out my R6 track bike :-))
All in all the GSi is a nice motor and if one is happy with ones car then great, thats what it is about. I currently have a GSi, a 4 motion Golf, a Vectra 3litre V6 diesel and the Mark 1...oh and a Chrysler Grand Voyager - no that is not quick but mighty big inside!
