I've got an 80.
You learn something new every day.
Thanks for the replies.
I test drove an alleged DCi 100 yesterday advertised on Autotrader as a DCI 100 Dynamique, it looked nice but it didn't feel paticularly quick and felt exactly the same as the DCi 80 I test drove on the Saturday. Turns out it was an 80 then!!! as it had just a blue "i" and also confirmed with RAC data check on the reg.
Is the DCi 100 5 speed?
What kind of power/torque is gained with a "chipped" DCi 80? it dosen't have to be mega fast just swift like a good TD engine should, but that 80 felt too slow to me. I imagine (not yet test drove the 100) that the Dci 100 should feel quite quick with 100bhp/148lb.ft with a 1000kg kerbweight, particularly as peak torque is at 2000rpm it should in theory pull better low down in gear than a 182? having the same peak torque but at less than half the revs.

No ned for different intake.80 will see circa 110bhp with larger intake and remap
Best way to tell is the 100 has a smaller slim front mounted intake the 80 has a full size one.Actually that was my other question!!! hehe How do you spot the difference under the bonnet? as the 100 as a different gearbox and turbo, does anyone know it is easy to identify?
100 has rear disks, also i believe the gearstick looks like the 1 from the megan, you need to look on ebay at 100's so you will reconise one, also the logbook should tell you as the c02 emmisions will be different between the two and this is stated on the logbook so you look for the c02 output for the 100 then check the logbook then you know
i thought the dci100 was a 6 speeder and had a laguna box?
