That red top C20XE is a real peach. Noticeable change in power when the second cam comes in. Come to think of it a lot of late 80's/ early 90's had that V-Tec like hike. That was when 16 valves was something to boast about!



Coopless!

Lol, funny you mentioning these Dan, as I've been thinking about them all week, after seeing an article in the local paper about a rally driver and it showed a photo of his rallying days in a GTE cool

If I had the money, I'd definately get one again love

Lottery tickets are always bought and will be sticking a couple of quid on the Euro tonight too. I might be a future one of those 18 millionaires they will be making laugh

I would love that mk2, I'm a massive fan of the Mk2 GTE 16v. It was the model I aspired to own when I had my first car, a Nova 1.3 SR. Sadly I've neve owned one. there can't be that many of them left, the vast majority will have gone from rust / been broken for their engine.

Sadly, I never got to own the 16v version, although did drive one smile

Both my Mk2's were the (better) 8v version laugh and my Mk1 had the 1.8 version, although I think the Mk 1's only came with the 1.8 engine anyway.
