had one, excellent car. 2.2s have bigger rims 17s as oppsoed the 1.8s 16s.

TBH if you cant stretch to the turbo i wouldnt bother with the 2.2 - more money for nothing except higher insurance.

pretty solid cars really.

Oh ok I thought there was a bigger performance difference than that.

Mike are you sure the 2.2s come with 17s?

I thought only the turbos did.

Don't worry about the 0.2 sec faster. It's the whole drive of the car that makes it better.

2.2 all the way over the 1.8.
