I will warn you now so you dont have to burn your car, stay away from the twisties then.
I used to have a 106 rallye and round the bends there wasnt much that could keep up including a 280bhp legacy twin turbo 4 wheel drive. On the straights it detsoyed the pug admittedly, but cornering was unbelievable in the little blighter.
The saxo vtr is the 1.6 8v 90bhp jobby and the vts is the 120bhp 16v which is the same as the 106 gti.
As munky mentioned these cars come into their own when their not kitted to f00k chav style and the power to weight really comes into play
I would definately have another rallye but when I've got somewhere to fix it as it was always breaking
