The new GTi
Bit brave comparing it to the 205GTi, let's hope they've got it right.
Anyone driven one yet ?

Peugeot are struggling at the moment and they know they need to get it right. Spec looks promising, lets just hope it delivers!

Still uses the dreaded THP engine... so will have all the same problems as the 207 without a doubt!!
The DS3 racing has had alot of trouble, piston rings being eaten, timing failure etc... and that is the same base engine as the 208 GTi.
That being said, when my 207 GTi IS working fine it is so much fun so people are bound to love a more powerful, lighter version to be honest!
