Hey,
I know im gonna get a load of replies about this but hey whats the fuss!?
I have a 1.3CDTI and its pretty nippy... I had a Audi A6 3.0TDI tried to pass me coming off the roundabout on to a dual carriage way but it couldn't.
It cant half tear up a hill.
I drove my dads Astra1.7D and it would not go... i felt like getting out and pushing it!
The top-speed for it is 102mph ive got over 105mph, its only a 69bhp
Ill post some pics when i get my tyre sorted (i decided to take a chunk out of the side of the tyre)
15" alloys, EPS, ABS, Commonrail Diesel Turbo Injection, Remote central locking, On Steering wheel radio controls, ultrablue pearlesant paint...just superb!

my dad has the 1.7td van and its well poor, being full of tools doesn't really help but still no kick to it like the 306 1.9td.

i think he is telling the truth about that audi, my friend has a 1.0 metro and he beat a 3.0 twin turbo supra the top speed the metro hit was 180mph

The Audi came off the motrway, went round the roundabout and the dual carrige tried to over take but i just drop into 3rd and he couldn't do anything...
The weight might have something to do with it... Audi A6 3.0TDI against a 1.3cdti Corsa... try it, i did...
