Ello. Anybody know what Engine is in the 1997-1998 Corsa Capital? So fair I've found out it's a 1.4, would it be a 16v or 8v engine?

Anything else I should know about it?

1.4 8v SPi = Single Point Injection.

So are they any good? Much Slower than the 1.4 16v?

Quite nice to drive though, quite torquey. Anyone who has driven the 1.2 16v will tell you how gutless they are
