2.0 GLSi Sierra in white which looked like a Cosworth, had it in 1998 and spun the back out of every junction. Mine was a bit faster than it should have been so might have been messed about with, I could keep up with most things on the straight but I did have a few near misses on the corners when the back stepped out. I would have preferred the faster Astra GTE but those cars were just too much to insure and I like rear wheel drive. To this day I'm still RWD with an E46 330CD and drive like it's 1999.

In the early 1990s, South African Kadett GSi's were further upgraded based on their success in production car racing and initially 500 special units were built as road cars for homologation purposes. This was a minimum requirement for entry into the Stannic Group N races. They went against BMW's 325iS (A 2.7 litre homologation special from BMW). They featured more aggressive 276-degree camshafts made by Schrick with 2 different settings for timing overlap (110° and 107°), revised intake and exhaust modifications (4-in-1 branch manifold and freeflow exhaust), Irmscher spring kit, modified engine management system by Promotec, a limited slip differential developed by Andre Verwey and special Aluett 7Jx15-inch ET35 alloy wheels, they were nicknamed the "Superboss" and held the world record for the most torque per litre (114 Nm per litre) for a naturally aspirated car until 2009 being beaten by the Ferrari 458 (117 Nm per litre). After the first 500 units were produced, many more were built to satisfy public demand.

YESSSSSS!!!! A car from my silly teenage driving era. I had 2 of these with 250-300bhp Calibra Turbo engines in. I'd have another one tomorrow. Love it Ricky, nice video man.

Aww man, this reminds me so much of my first car. I had a white Kadett GSI 16v. Still love it so much after all these years.

Had a GTE back in the 90s. Late to get back to the Air Force base early hours one morning driving through the Cotswolds and I saw hazards flashing out of a bush. It was a GTE parked backwards in a ditch. I slowed down in mine after 🤣Very dodgy handling!!

U blast out a bend not blast into one and loose it

Love these old things. I had 3 x Gte16v’s back in the day including a mint Champion edition of which some pr1ck stole it, crashed it and burned it out to a crisp. I was devastated so I bought a Nova 300bhp Gte c20let - the guy in the vid is spot on, 3rd gear onwards they’re ballistic. Good vid 👍

Love at the first sight with that beautiful thumbnail. Great car!
