Can anybody tell me the difference between the 306 xsi models (94-97 97-01), i hear that there is a 8v and 16v version, how much difference is there between them? Cheers for any help

yer, 10.1 seems a bit slow for a 2.0 with 135 bhp?

is the 1.8 16v engine the same one as in the GLX?
any specs other then the parkers guide ones for the 2.0?

would appear phase 1 had the 2.0 8v with 123 bhp and 16v was 135 bhp

So what would be faster, the 1.8 16v or the 2.0 8v??

cheers malachy, where did you get that information from? also i have been in a friends 1.8 glx and we hit 60 in less then 9 seconds!! but as someone said they probably do the testes with people and luggage in or something

i see, its strange because that website says the 2.0 16v and the 1.8 16v are both slower to 60 then there 8v equivilants? and the same goes for the 1/4 mile
