the works van is a 1.7D, with 60bhp and trust me its sloooooooow as fook and that keeps 1.7TD Cav, so in a corsa it might b a lil' fasta, but still slow as shit, might get 110mph out of it, dwn a hill

yes, they also do other cars too.....
the 1.7TD is a good engine, Kris TD who is on here had a 1.5TD running at 99bhp, that was without an intercooler so the 1.7TD can get around 120-130 for a couple of hundred £££

Also Kris's 99bhp cost him a whole £15 for a bleed valve, a guage (£60) would be recomended too but not essential.

Corsapower .. do it! My mate had one and it is amazing considering the mpg of that diesel. Cheap mod, put a large intercooler and turn up the boost.

They did the 1.7td under the name of vauxhall and if I am not mistaken also under isuzu.

Isuzu made all the diesel engines that Vaux used up untill 97, not sure if GM owned isuzu or just had a deal to supply engines, the 1.5, 1.5TD are the same engine just one has a turbo and the 1.7d/td is the same just the block is bored out more
