Owner chris rallyeYear of registration 1999 Year you bought the car 2001 Mileage when bought 13,000 miles Current mileage 75,000 miles Paint colour Cherry Red What made you buy this car? One of my friends had a Phase 1 XSi which I quite liked, and I tagged along when he went to the local dealer. There were two Rallye's on the forecourt, a white one badged as a GTi-6 and the red one which I ended up buying. A couple of days later I went for a test drive and put a deposit down. Modifications (Exterior) None Modifications (Interior) None Modifications (Performance) Devil Decat and Xsara washer jets  Best moment? When I placed the deposit I was living in a slightly dodgy part of town but planned to move in a months time. As a result of this I asked the dealer to store the car until the move was all sorted. The dealer was very understanding and stored the car for a few weeks, but needed payment by the end of the month. So when I picked it up I had already paid for it a few weeks beforehand, and so just had to get the keys of the dealer. At the time it felt almost like a free car. Worst moment? I was a bit concerned when the engine picked up a ticking noise, around the time a couple of other members had had problems with cambelt snaps and the associated tapping. Obviously I was worried that there might be a problem with the head, which normally cost a small fortune to fix. Luckily a post appeared on the forum that mentioned that their spark plugs become lose and start to tap, less than half an hour later it was fixed. |
