1.3 8v engines are rapid little fuckers, brilliant head and inlet on them.

Indeed, XSIs are better equipped, leccy windows etc. 1.6 is group 11 though, 1.4 is 8 i think?
Edit,
1.6 is 11
1.4 is 10
1.3 rallye is 9
1.6 rallye (Phase 2) group 11.

Don't get a 16v if you want rare then standard rallyes are a lot rarer and more sought after aswell, cracking little motors.

What insurance you pay on the XSI Chris, cheapest quote I've had is £600.

I was very pleased with my quote, 18, 1NCB, but the best possible postcode too 
If i was keeping the 8v, then carbs would be the way forward i tell thee.

I paid 1k on an S1 Rallye at 17 with no no claims. Awesome cars for what they are, prices are going up though it seems. You get some real sheds for under 1k, I wouldnt like to spend anything less than 1.5k on one.
