Planning on getting another engine dropped in now, around October time. I 'should' be able to insure the xe ok. I doubt i will be able to insure a let until NEXT October.
Do i get xe fitted or wait for a let?
16xe in at the mo with 131bhp, but keeps playing up

Um my plan was to get an XE then do TB's next year...
I know people like corb got an XE and then found a cheapish LET and so went with that... and the turbo's are extremely fun...
If you're worried about reliability I'd probably go for the XE rather than worry about old turbos...

Yeah that kinda matters too For the cost of a LET you could have a fully rebuilt XE with cams...

To be honest what can I say when I have a broken gearbox, oil pissing everywhere, and I'm tempted to chuck my car off a cliff

To me, a Corsa with a dump valve would be 4kin ace!! The attention it would draw would be amazin, but then everyone will know its quick so you wont get the surprise element at traffic lights.
