I'm also a fan of the 8V motors, but my experience neglects the overall numbers of the masses. If you match longevity to longevity the 16V numbers will beat out the 8V all over the place. Definately a stronger engine all around BUT.....
I have an 8V N/A car with 513K original miles on it and I've had nothing but bad experience with my upper mileage 16V cars. This is definately the definition of "bias". At the same time I've worked on a bunch of 2.1 cars and they were definately a bad bunch so my gut feeling would still be to keep the 8V car if it's been well taken care of and has no problems. Still just a "gut feeling" but that's what you're looking for right?
