Mine was the 2 litre petrol XSi. One step down from the GTi6. I did work on the little things but lack of a garage and 2 young kids makes it hard. Brilliant cars and even at 22 years old still went well, felt tight and solid - the exact opposite of what most people expect. No leaks either... Well after I fitted the new cam cover gasket.
The white GTi 270 is the replacement... But it's not really a contest character wise and it certainly doesn't ride as well as the 306. Rapid though.
