best fuel economy in a vec c

[freshprince]

what model is the best for fuel economy?

DIESEL.......................

either a cdti 120 / 150

all depend's on how you drive them realy, constantly getting between 550 - 600 mile to the tank in mine

I've found a few 54 plate ones on autotrader.
I dunno how much I should be looking at paying. But would be nice if I could get one.

[freshprince]

Mine's a 05 plate 150 I bought for 7800 from cargiant last July...

And on balance the 150 is probably slightly better for economy that the 120 as it's less stressed for a given amount of power, and the Vectra's are heavy cars...
