An XE is the engine code for the 150 bhp 2.0 16v "redtop" engine found in mk2 GTE and 3 GSi astra (as well as Cav's and Calibra), its widely regarded as a bit of a goodun! |

There's a guy on astra-mk2.com using a Daewoo shell to build a minty-clean Astra GTE  Apparently there's quite a few little differences to tackle, mostly bulkhead and mountings at the front end. Not sure what it'll end up being registered as, the chassis number will correspond to a Daewoo! |

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |
