i've got money, my choices are to have a 2.0 litre conversion which is the more expensive choice, or take my car to the bodyshop, and have a few things done

i want the power, but its cheaper to make the car pretty.

It never gets boring. I've had my one and only turbo car 6 weeks and still love booting it. Except in the wet coming off a roundabout

Plus it looks good out the box, so to speak.

depending on your circumstances why not do some little body mods and sort out your brakes, suspension and exhaust system ready for a 2.0 eventually

seriously, do what you want rus, remember that doing either will put your insurance up so if cost is a big factor in your decision you should look at the big picture.

XE's are great and all but they can have hidden costs if they fuck up
