8V FTW.

Mines on the backside of 130,000 and it hasnt missed a beat in over 12 months of ownership. I was holding out for a 16v but it never happened.

I bought mine, not really out of choice, but as it was cheap as chips and my car had died & I was a bit desperate. Although I absolutely love it now. 2.0 8v, 140,000 on it, years ticket, just had belt done. I've got big plans for it. Don't rush into it bud, get exactly what you want.
