what age car? 16v engine or 8v cvh? probably not a lot, a 3i may have stiffer suspension and different alloys as standard.

The Mk4 yeah the 3i had the bodykit, suspension and interior to go with it. Engines were about the same.

Same with the Mk5,6,7 XR3i but that had a 108bhp and 130bhp versions of the engine.

There are also mk4 1.6i Escorts with catalysator and KE-jetronic and pushing out 90 bhp as opposed to the XR3i's 105bhp.
