    The 1.9 150 does seem to suffer from lag badly given owners comments - not sure why your wife's doesn't. Maybe she's just lucky!

    The power band is very narrow. If you get the turbo spinning there is next to no lag. All three of the 150 cdtis I've driven have been pretty much identical.

    i don't notice any noticeable lag on my 120 compared to a BMW 530D (single turbo) although the twin turbo is that not much better IMO..

    BMW is faster though...........

    Stick a tuning box on the 150, give it some stick & you can feel it torque steer when the power kicks in
