Overview
The GT is a limited edition version of the C2 that’s designed to be a back-to-basics fun to drive model. It’s powered by a 1.6-litre engine – this only delivers 110bhp, giving the GT a 0-62mph time of 9.5 seconds – but it’s still an enjoyable unit to exploit. Unfortunately the slack manual gearbox takes the edge off the sporty feel, but it’s at least an alternative to the semi-automatic gearbox that features in the VTR.
The steering also lacks feel, but that doesn’t prevent the C2 GT from handling well with plenty of grip and minimal body roll.
