X14XE. The Quicksilver has the most ironic name in history.

No difference, Quicksilver tends to be quicker off the line and 14XE won't gain or loose ground on it.

And they are 75bhp iirc.

Yup

Lowest engine sized 106 worth getting is a 1.4 XSI. 100bhp

Mines a 1.6 tho

105bhp or something standard, 1.4 and 1.6 are very simillar, just the 1.6 has more tourque.

Not sure what mine is now though, would imagine 115-120bhp.

They are faster than a standard 1.4 Sport even if they are supposed to be 15bhp down.

Corsa was faster in my experience, though he caught up on the corners easy, I was still on standard shocks and springs on 14"s, fucking dogdy to say the least

I disagree entrely. And that's with two different quicksilvers, and two different 1.4 Sports.
