Thats exactly what makes them feel quick when you are just driving about normally.
Its not until you try to overtake a shitty van on a back road and find out when your sitting beside him that you can't.
Yes you probably can overtake but you have to be perfectly in the power and change gear 4 times to make it feel liek you are going anywhere

The best fuel consumption i've got 75 mile to the gallon
Normally, big footed as i am, i get 40-50 miles to the gallon
pretty much advanced....i would advice anyone to try it...i drop from a 1.8d escort and i was a bit warey on the speed but i was suprised! The Ford 1.4TDCI is only 68bhp while a 1.3CDIT is 69bhp what is the difference?

If a 2.5 tdi audi can give my mates CTR a very good run for its money I hate to think how a cdti corsa would fare against one!
Mate, you sure the audi wasnt reversing or stationary?

cant be bothered to read all the thread but do not underestimate those audis. I raced one from 20-90 in my ibiza cupra which was pushing more than 200bhp and 200lb/ft and i was only just gaining on the audi.

no, the 13cdti is faster than the 1.7td, but the 1.7cdti is quicker! lets not get confused with the engines!
i took one of the new 1.9cdti zafiras out the other week, 150bhp with 250lb/ft torque, the quickest diesel engne in its class, and i tell u what, it shifts!
