Depends on a few factors mate...
How much do you have to spend? It seems people with LET's usually spend a small fortune keeping them running. You'll be able to pick up an XE, and get it rebuilt for about the same price as a shagged LET too. Are you after quick, or extremely quick?
I personally would start out with the XE, and if you want more, then get a LET, that way the engine bay is ready for the new engine anyway
