"3-cylinder city turbo. Thermostat epidemic is the Achilles heel. Adequate power for Corsa weight. Check service history."

C20XE/X20XEV 2.0

"Astra F/G, Vectra A/B, Calibra. C20XE = red top legend (16V). X20XEV = Ecotec successor. Timing belt (C20XE) or chain (X20XEV). C20XE is one of Opel's great performance engines. Reliable with care."
