I think it was an FTO before a severe beating with the ugly stick.

Guarantee its a GR too (worst engine of all of them).

Not exactly very nice cars in stock form.

2.0 V6 FWD, most automatic, rather ungainly design.

I kinda like it - looks better than a stock FTO tongue out

I had one many years ago, quite liked it. Never terribly quick, but not a bad sports coupé in its time.

cracking cars. had 2 a few years ago.

GPX tiptronic and a lovely rare GPvR Manual.

never officially sold in the uk so all imported and never undersealed from the factory so they rotted. badly.

I still think good example of these look really nice, obviously the OPs chavved example looks dreadful as do most other badly modified and bodykitted cars.

Standard (ish) facelift cars are good looking things for <£1000





I'm biased though as I owned a couple for quite a few years.

I ran a GPX tip as a daily driver for a while and enjoyed it, not a bad old thing.

Holy st that's still going around?

It used to make an appearance in the office car park(unless there's another one in Aberdeen,) never did find out who's it was. Brought a bit of comedy sunshine to the otherwise dull ranks of silver and black 2.0TDi power...
