sorry if already discussed.

already at limit but...mission creep...lol
cant test drive at moment to compare.
if finds 180 too slow can chip later! Is it easy?

From my personal experience, not so much difference. You can save money by purchasing the A180 and remapping it latter

it’s annoying when the engines are exactly the same and they want 700 quid for just a software change for just 27bhp.
had a BMW 330i which uses virtually same engine as the 220i but at least had hardware upgrades too and spec. Plus an extra 86bhp And no chipping would give you that!

The majority of the Car manufacturers are trying their best to take our money..

So even less reason to buy the 200

My mrs had this dilemma last month, she opted for the A200 in the end. Had never driven a 180, but the 200 goes well for what it is and feels plenty pokey enough. I imagine the 180 would've been fine to be fair.
