The one i'm getting is a 1.3 Multijet (common rail turbo diesel) with 90bhp, top speed of 109mph and 0-60 is around 11 seconds, though I don't know the actual stats for the manual. Oh and the important bit, 60 mpg (I'm an old man).

The only one to get is the 90bhp 1.3 diesel, in quite a few reviews they said that the 1.3 was better than the 1.9 even though it has less power... The petrols are probably quite crap.

1.2 Petrol
1.4 Petrol
1.3 Diesel 75bhp
1.3 Diesel 90bhp
1.9 Diesel
I think the Abarth will either have the 1.6 turbo out of the Corsa VXR or a 2.0 20v turbo out of the coupe. I can't remember though.

Any ideas if the 1.9 is the same engine as in the Astra's? Sure i've seen a re-map for 170 brake for those, which should be fun
