Xsara Vts Gearbox Ratio

[hsustyle 1]

I am keen on a 205 with a xsara vts/gti6 conversion. It's exactly local and the only thing I'm concerned about is the ratios.I've had a good search on the forum but can't seem to find much..

will it be a hoot on country lanes? I like short ratios that require you to work the gearbox and make the drive more involving.

Are they good for acceleration or more for casual cruising?

Will they keep the engine nicely in the powerband without drtopping revs too much and a big gap between gears?

 

Any feedback greatly appreciated.I'm sure the topic has been covered a fair fwe times, just can't find much.

 

Cheers

I went from a 1.9 box to a Xsara VTS box and for fast road IMO it is the better of the two. No doubt a matter of opinion.
