Swift GTi MK1 walkaround.

My 1986 MK1 Swift GTi.
Car is an '86 not a '96 as mentioned in the vid,
and does have Koni shocks fitted, unsure of springs tho.
Car in the background is another MK1 that was turbo charged
but have sold the motor and transfering a few of the other bits
to this car.

I had a white 1987 model and I miss it terribly. Light, quick, uncomplicated - and a lot of fun :)

[@bauke420]

i had a single cam 87 commercial edition. i also miss it terribly. i'm going to try my best to buy another one as soon as possible!

[@leggoman1000]

owned two of these, bought a new one in aus 87 when they were fire saled at $13990 with no goodies, not even a radio. An absolute legendary car, one of the funest ive owned.

[@markrobinson8575]

Bought mine for 1100 many years ago. I’ll always remember the sound of the engine really unique.

[@peterhoare3219]

See my comments above. I LOVED mine....it was like driving a roller skate that just REVED all day to 7500 every year change

[@PeterHBne1]

They are such a fun little car. Rev their guts out and are unbreakable. I had one from new and cried the whole day I sold it. And your facts are way off. There was more than 200 imported and they came out much earlier than '96. I bought mine in '86. And the 2nd gear can always be a problem with them. It eventually crunches. Unbelievable fuel economy. You can flog fuck out of it all day or drive it sedately - either way you'll get about 6.5 - 7 litres per 100kms.

Looking good

[@wase333]

Someone had this dream car in 90s but i have in 20s 😊😊😊😊😊

[@pagano126]

So clean. You barely even see the later model on the road anymore let alone the first generation model. If you still had it I would have asked you to sell it to me. Haa ha!

[@peterhoare3219]

I wanted a Rally look. So got a custom aluminium nudge bar made up, and stuck four HUGE Cibie spotties on the front of it. CHRIST it looked NASTY.... White also, mine was.

[@BenJabituya]

This car was sold in the U.S. by Chevrolet as the Turbo Sprint and in Canada by Pontiac as the Turbo Firefly. The 1.3L Engine was used in the Maruti Suzuki Esteem in India.

[@maxx-er3fj]

Turbo had a different 80hp engine. GTi had naturally aspirated 100hp g13b engine

I used to have a white one - completely stock.

[@peterhoare3219]

I put 15" alloys on mine. BIG mistake. Took the edge RIGHT it off....

[@NoferTrunions]

I'm interested about the wheels. Were the OE steel wheels with white disc hubcaps with a ring of holes? Also are those Enki's in any way considered a Swift wheel - like an option? (The reason I ask is that I have an 87 Turbo Sprint and want to run 13" wheels while maintaining the OE hubcap look.) THanks

[@Wheelnut78]

I think so, and no the enkeis fitted here were not an option.

+Wheelnut78 I was like "damn that's a 96? Holy shit they made that car look the same for a long time". lol. Nice car! those things are really rare here in the states. Looked like you had a sprint/forza/swift in the back as well.

[@Wheelnut78]

Yeah that was a running wreck that had parts for a turbo conversion. Never got round to it and sold it all off. They are rare in Australia too, I have only ever seen two others in my city (Perth)

[@nezerac]

Wheelnut78 I never see these here in the states. I saw one chevy sprint like a year ago and flipped out. lol. No one knew or cared what I was talking about. Do you guts get the Lotus Omega there?
