1.4 16v is 100BHP
1.6 GL is 75BHP

The 16 valver is the way to go though if your trying to pick between the 2

Well you have to consider the fact the VTS is made of Kit-Kat wrappers and twigs, so it weighs about as much as a bag of sugar. Thus giving it a better power-to-weight ratio compared to the GTi.

I just know which I'd rather have a crash in.

there is that, kit kat wrapper would be a gd description for it, although its got less styling.

and its not just crashing, which would you rather be seen in? own? tell your friends?...well i'm out of ideas but you get the impression.
