This is definately sounding like the way to go. I think ill have a good look around for a dci80. Is there anything thats really desireable on these cars climate control, electric sunroof, auto lights wiper etc?

Im not expecting it to go like a 1*2 but is it going to feel any faster than say a 1.4 petrol clio?

Re: 1.5dci 80 or 1.4 petrol?
Well i used to get 30MPG from my fiesta which is what made me look at diesel. But recently iv been getting 38-40MPG because iv been driving a little more carefully (mainly driving at 55-60mph instead of 85-90mph)
Iv been reading about it on http://www.cliodci.net (but obviously theyre gunna be a bit biased) iv heard of 110bhp with a remap and the intercooler of a 100bhp 1.5dci. Not sure how the clutch would respond to that lol
Do you know what theyre like to drive? I learnt to drive in a clio 1.5dci 65 obviously i wasnt exactly abusing it whilst learning to drive.
Iv heard that you can get some significant power gains from a remap and better intercooler possibly from a 100bhp model?
Thanks

That was what i was thinking what are the typical MPG of each car on an typical combined cycle? Im getting about 35MPG from my car at the minute what are the petrol clios like?
