Wrong way round.
The SRi Turbo was limited edition run of only 500. I wouldnt mod that.
The SRi Turbo is 187bhp
GSi is 200bhp

But then theres the SRi Turbo  would maybe have to borrow abit of money to get one but just got Insurance quotes of just over £900
Then theres the GSi even more money to buy and insurance is £1200 but i could probably stretch to the money needed!
Which should i go for
erm i raped a 1.8 coupe with my 2.2 few months back and also a hatch 1.8 sri aswell

im just going on the Total Vauxhall figures, 1.8 is apparently 8.2 0-60 and the 2.2 only 8.5 and the 2.0 at 9.0!
so i was literally just going on that!
