pre-facelift vec's seem to have a bit better standard spec to facelift model's......
- What are the advantages/disadvantages between the CDTi 120 and 150 engines?
120 engine is stronger than the 150, both easily tunable with either box or re-map 120 will get about 170 - 150 will get about 190 with either box or map.
- Should I discount the DTi models altogether?
dti on pre-facelift only and are pretty good
- Is the gearbox the same in both the 120 and 150 models and if so what is the engine speed at say 70mph?
not sure on this one but both have the DMF which can cause vibration's if it has not been replaced with newer/better one, engine speed @ 70mph is about 2.5k in my 120 cdti
- What MPG should I expect to see on 35 mile motorway journeys? Am I being unrealistic with 60mpg+ ?
60mpg+ is a bit tooooo much in reality, my 120 give's about 55mpg on a good run (did a 1500 mile trip to germany earlier in the year with the club and managed 55mpg iirc and it used 2 1/2 tanks of fuel....
