nice deck, looks clean for a r reg is it a real vti-s model or just a vti with the vti-s styling??

I thought it was a VTI-S but it says VTI on the log book and on the back :cry:

It is a great little car and pretty clean for the year, drives well too ;)

3rd'd for whipping off the towbar... it's nice to get some weight over the front wheels...

hear what you're saying 'bout the bikes though - can sort of squeeze 3 xc bikes in my boot with the wheels off and seats down.. use the luggage eyes and bungees to keep it tight.
