120 is sposded to be a better buy... as the torque is more low downon the 120 and the 160s torque is high up the revs.

120? WTF? They don't make a 120, they make a 1.4 16v 105bhp and a 1.8 16v 160bhp.

Or have they released a new model?

Neither would I, I believe the interior in the SRi Turbo is'nt as good as the GSi though.

I think I would prefer a GSi in arden blue.
