dansallis Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I would also go with Renault 5 Turbo, nothing else has those lights and a 'wedge' like that at the back! 3 hours ago, jace1969 said: Ive started something now The thing is i don't of a lot of pics of stuff like engines so ill just watch and learn. Yes you definitely have. I think its going to end up being obscure engines as well as close-ups of car features. Oh, and @zain611, that engine is undoubtedly from a Nissan Leaf 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes its one of them as as far as i know they only did the 2 as the 1.6 was 8 valve and 2.5 or 2.6 was a v6. I aint got a clue but is there ant difference on the engine layout between the 1.8 and the 2.0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jace1969 Posted February 27, 2018 Author Share Posted February 27, 2018 Is there any difference looking at the engine bay between the 1.8 and 2.0. I don't think you can but its my old CDX which i have to say was A1 with not a lot of problems and mint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jace1969 Posted February 27, 2018 Author Share Posted February 27, 2018 This is another one which i found but not mine,we all know it vauxhall but i only put this on as its the first time i have seen one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other picture looks to be a newer vauxhall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk What's the 0-60 time on that? Not all engines are made to be efficient. I was looking at a VW fox 1.2 and that has £150 tax and takes 17.5 seconds to 60 which is slow. My previous car had a 1 litre petrol engine and had £20 tax, claimed more mpg and is 3 seconds quicker to 60 😂 from a 1 litre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mk5 Polo is also horrifically slow, with high tax and relatively poor economy. They're not even well specced with no cruise or auto lights/wipers. I think target market must be old people that will only buy VW but don't care about driving or costs at all. Shame as they look really good imo! I've noticed the new Polo ad is aiming it at rubbish drivers as well...basically says it has enough driver aids to keep you safe if you can't drive...
