Not much in it road tax wise, maybe £20/30 or so? I would not limit your car search based on car tax  :)

Consider 2.2 if that's the issue, means you can get newer examples. Has a little more torque than 2.0 as well, bit easier to work on due to electronic throttle body (no throttle cable)

Nope. Only difference with "sport" version is:
MV6 seats.
"Silver" trimmings as opposed to wood effect.
MV6 alloys.
Bootlip spoiler.
MV6 suspension.
Basically a tarted up CD spec ;)

Do some quotes, its same engine, so can't see too big of a difference. Its only sports seats, different alloys & lip spoiler  :)

If you mean the 2.2 sport the OP (tigers-gonads) lives in Hull so I would assume the car is in that area :)
