    Hello all
    I'm looking at investing in a 1.9 cdti vectra.
    Looking at the two engines, it would clearly be good to have a little more power. Do you loose much fuel efficiency for this? Any other differences between the two?
    Thanks
    George

    Edited to add: should I expect much price difference between the two?

    The 150's tend to be a little better I believe.

    Check for Service history though, check for Cambelt Change if over 60k, check for DMF replacement, EGR, Swirl, etc.....all this could cost mega buck. Dont be afraid to have a ring around the dealers that have done the servicing. The 120 is meant to be more reliable although I found my old one to be a right nail!

    Good luck! !

    Excellent advice, thanks. I've seen a 150 that has done 65k and a 120 that has done 55k.
    Do both have the painful service at 60k?
    Is there a buyers guide anywhere I can look at?

    our 120 is superb, and with a remap you can get it a little better than a standard 150
