I was making the point of being 20VT/16VT only. A generic build is no better than a decent engine book.

20vt a casual driver with some umph not scary to drive like the 16vt but still makes you smile like sitting in your favourite arm chair


Are you suffering from 16v-itis? How can you justify the 16vt feeling more impressive? shocked chinny

No it isn`t) last summer my turbo oil pipe had broken down two times wasting oil all over the road, both times i`ve been forced to drive with oil pressure light on for 10-15 minutes (of cause slowly to find a place to be towed from) and the engine is still fine. compression and oil pressure are ok
