I hate it when thoughts like this come into your head you dont know what to do do you My heads been like that for weeks!

What would be cheaper for you the 1.6 or sell up and LET? A 1.6 turbo would be different and but if you could get a LET for the same sort of price then id go for LET

overall i think the 1.6 will work out the same sort of cash.

i dont want to do the 1.6 and then regret it wanting the 2.0 and then doing the 2.0 and spending twice as much

wilson's nova in its prime was around 155 i think. what im getting at is, why are you spending all this money to get xe results when an xe would be cheaper. if it costs the same and you want power i would go LET

The 1.6 would be much better handling (I think) , But if you want power and not to bothered about the twistys then i would personally get the LET it, Depends what you want really,

A LET might handle well anyway but i cant say as iv not experienced one. If you think about it the 2.0 seems the obvious choice for the money

get a let and then save up for a good suspension set up, by the time you get to the corners you will have time to slow right down because the other guy will be miles behind lol
