My Corsa SRi 1.4 8v came with electric windows & mirrors, sunroof, central locking. No power steering but it did have 5 of the standard 3 spoke alloy wheels

All 1.4 16v engines that go into any corsa b's are the the same. There is no non ecotec 1.416v. All are x14xe. The difference in engines are only in 1.6's. Gsi's had c16xe (non ecotec) and sports had x16xe which is ecotec and 3 bhp less than the c16xe.

Get a 1.4 Sport, or if you can, get the 1.6 Sport. Engines should last longer then the older SRi.

posted on 10th May 05 at 13:49

the difference is 2hp which is marginal, personally id prefer a newer car and a few more extras


casper_ac

posted on 10th May 05 at 13:46

the difference is about 4bhp is it not. the engines in the sprts are "ectotecs" dulled down...stick to the SRi electrc windows are a nothing ness really

posted on 10th May 05 at 13:31
