Hi jimbob, It means the engine type, the 'x20xe' I think is the 2.0 litre 16 valve ecotec....... QUOTE - I think!!! But as I'm not that clued up on the full spec someone on here will be able to give you more help.  :y

For your specific example
X20SE

X=Euro2 compliant (emissions)
20=2Litre
S=compression ratio (9.5:1-10:1)
E=Multi point fuel injection

X20XEV is X20 as above, X=compression ratio of 10:1-11.5:1, E as above and V=volume model.

Yep and the other ones are Multi Info Display (the most common one, trip computer & check control etc), and Triple Info Display which is the basic one which shows only temperature, radio display and time.

 For the CIDs... I know they're like rocking horse deposits 2nd hand... but what if one breaks and you ring VX for a new one? Can VX still source them? (Of course, if we had one car with a CID, and quoted that reg number every time we rang, they might get suspicious...)

Didn't some one post the price of them recently? Around a grand/£1000 seems to ring a bell. At that price I expect vx have skips full of them left.

 Sweet baby deities on rocket-powered monkey bikes... if we all wanted one, do you think they'd do a group buy deal...? (I'm only half-joking...)
