Turbo has been put back till mid 2004. Emissions problems, suggesting that it is going to be powered by the 1.6 Turbo.

I wrote the report in fastcar this month.
The new "Twinport" technology helps the 1.4 16v go to about 49mpg as apposed to about 39mpg. This is without loosing any performance.

is the 1.8 any quicker or is it just carried over from the last engine?

I expect its the same engine, since its a brand new design, and hasnt had any teethig problems. I expect vauxhall are pleased with it. No extra performance, maybe better MPG.
