a sedicivalvole would have 2000 16v injection electronic written on the spark plug cover, the back bit can be changed but chances are it's a Grandturismo, don't think this was ever sold in uk though?

I think it was - or was curtainly going to be available - it is listed in the 1993 catague next to the Sedici. In efffect i think it replaced the old 1.8Ie twin cam.
BTW I'm sure everyone remembers I am a sad b*stard and my Tipo IS a Sedicivalvole, although I replaced the boot trim with a Granturismo one cos I prefer it. I'll have the Sedi one back on for the Brooklands thing!
does anyone object if i put this information into a database?
there was one on ebay a couple of years ago, it belonged to nigel mansel originaly. went for good money if i remember right.
A sedici will have an engine that look like this... Note the spark plug cover between the cam cover to give the engine a 'flat' top.

Just put my beloved Tipo 16v back on the road after a 3 year lay-up.
N532 DSG
Owned since 2000, she's totally original other than a K&N filter to replace the big airbox. 64k from new and still going strong. Using her every day at the moment and loving every minute. Forgotten how much fun they were!!

Great news......and cool car!!
That is one lovely looking Sedici. Where was the photo taken? Where in the country are you based?
That is a beauty steve 
I bet that drives and sounds sweet.
Im starting to think about getting the kit taken off mine, I have a nagging feeling the kit wasn't fitted correctly in the first place and as such will continue to crack no matter how many times it's tickled. Lets face it, a standard Tipo is a thing of beauty, no need for any major styling changes, I still like the kit but if its gonna be a pain in the backside I could certainly live without it.

Sorry about that. Just posted to see what people might think the car is worth as I have no idea!
I'll put it in the classifieds after I figure that out!
looking good. So it was you who bought the car off E/bay then. It need a "proper" Sedici grill though to finish it off.
The other car - I assume Dad's from your earlier post - looks as cool as mines. See old timers can still be cool!!!!!!!!!!

They're 16vt wheels aren't they? 20vt's are slimmer spokes.
Them bumpers look in need of some back to black!

Yeah bumpers do need blacking not had time really just using it every day and its great. Gave her a polish and came up well! Need to find a grill to if anyones got one?
No I didnt get it off ebay mate, the guy I bought it off is in my village - he won the bidding and brought it home but he has 4 Tipo 16v a Tipo 20vt along with 15 other cars some italian classics, Jensens, Scimitars, Stags, sd1's etc, anyway went to visit him and ended up bringing it home with me
Im not sure about the wheels - i had them in the garage and put em on to try them out and im not convinced i like the look of them - i have the oe wheels too and the car came on 14's which i thought looked way too small.
I dont know if i will keep the 16's on there as are advertised for sale and someone is coming to see them on saturday - if they do sell that oe wheels will go on refurbed
Thanks for your comments.
