Next year i am looking to buy another GTE/GSI but would like to know how much i would expect to pay for a mint one and which one would be the best to get, engine wise ?

All feedback welcome, Cheers

depends how mcuh your willing to pay and what condition nova your after.

both GTE and GSi have virtually the same engine, both have bosch jetronic fuel injection too. both 100bhp, or is it 101??

GSi looks better IMO though

The late GSI's had c16se engines, which were better, no AFM to fook up, no dizzy/rotor etc to wear out.
As for price, tbh you could pay anything, a good condition 1.2 goes for at least ?500.
GTE/GSI would be closer to the 1K mark, if you can find a good condition one.

Its worth what you are willing to pay. i have a GSi myself but ask me now & I'd sooner have a GTE. Old style front ends are rarer now & they can look so smart with the right mods.

Engines are reliable & torquey. Though noone seems to know much about them.
