i might just do that lol, the 2.0s seem harder to find though. | |

Good chances to be honest but i would still go for the 2 litre, my sister had a 1.8 and my mate has a 2.0 and the 1.8 is only about the same on acceleration but after 60 the 2.0litre starts pulling away, more power, more torque etc. | |

S'pose a saxo isn't a step 'class-wise', plus didn't realise you'd had one before. | |

brett ive had a saxo before and theyre not great build wise. brakes are worse than vauxhalls. | |

Can you fit the box from the 1.8 to the 2.0 that would be interesting? | |

Would it not be cheaper to insure, not to mention over 2secs quicker 0-60 and better handling and get a Saxo VTS? | |

so the 1.8 sri would be the best bet then? (after reading the above info about insurance and price of each model to buy) | |

Get the 1.8. Supposed to be faster than the 2.0 due to shorter gearbox ratios | |
