both the 75 and the 100 models have 16 valves. so.....

a 1,4 badge on the back (and rear drum brakes) is 75bhp
a 16v badge on the back (and rear disks) is 100bhp

also the 75 has a redline just before 6k whereas the 100 redlines above the 6k mark.

Mines got discs all around opose to drums, and it's got a 1.4 badge at the back.

It's the 16v version.

Insurance document says 60BHP, but it's the 75 version :lol: :wink:


AND IT'S AN AUTO :oops:

if yours is a 16v jon then you have 75.

as regards your discs kapur, what model is yours? maybe the last 6n2's came out with discs all around?
