just a few questions
did any model of the 180 or latest 206's come with discharge lights?
also does anyone know what engine differences there are between the two models as in the exact details
Cheers

No 206's came with HID's as standard.
The 180 has VVT and a tubular manifold off the top of my head.

no 206s came with those lights
as for the engine its been covered lots before but basics are
180 has vvt
different inlet manifolds
better manifold, sports cat and different exhaust
more complicated dual air intake system

thats a bugger about the lights!! im using a car for road rallying and the regs state if a car was produced with discharge lights they could be used
is the 180 and 140 the same model of engine ?

the general consensus is that, if you are buying a car to be standard, the 180 is better.. but if you want to tune a car, apparently the GTi is easier to do.

well id like a farily standard pokey engine to go in my rally car but all the bsi problems and stuff is putting me well off them, i know you can take this off an run omex or some sort of management but this is going down the never ending road of a money pit, so im thinking a 140 engine with few minor mods

The GTi138 will also run multiplexing if you get a '51plate or newer.
Non-plexed GTi137/8's also run a BSI

thats that idea out the window then! with our sort of rallying it can get quite rough and offen end up with alternator problems and stuff , and i heard you cant bump start 180's ? looks like the electrics will be the weak point!

Using jump leads on a mux is a bit of a taboo, but plenty of people do it. It's just it can cause a power surge and play havoc with the BSI

There has been instances on here where jump starting a multiplexed 206 can fry the BSI, causing a hefty outlay of money in repair bills.
The 180 engine does have a quite a few differences but is based on the same lump as the GTI138 EW10.
For the purpose your seeking, i'd be tempted with the 138 engine EW10J4.
