I love my valver to bits but have owned an 8v and that was awesome too. In short theres no answer, if i could i would have both. There, thats it sorted, you need to have both then you will always be happy. End of!
i do a 60 mile round trip 5 days a week in my 8v through twisty's and i agree its easier to drive and gives the all important smile factor, my best mate has a 16v and i leave him at traffic lights everytime..he works in the same place as me and won't take his 16v it drinks too much fuel and its up and down the gear box alot.

His 16v is knackered. Or he's driving like a girl.
