	possibly yeah. on the motorway i do 70mph @3000 rpm in 5th which is right on the start of boost so its nice for overtaking but if you can you want to keep it less than that so your not feeding more fuel in. good luck trying to drive the car sensibly the only journeys ive managed to do it is when ive had to take my relatives as passengers!

	So 55MPG wouldn't be out of the question driven sensibly on the motorway then really.

	i get about 40-45mpg from my 1.5TD and i nail it everywhere, im also runing over 1 bar of boost these days, rollin roaded at 87bhp. its not as cost effective as i thought it was gonna be when i bought it i have to say

	I want a Lupo diesel, 70MPG! They're more than I want to spend for just going to work in though :(

What sort of MPG do you think I'll get? Over 60MPG? If u drive the 1.5D sensibly, 55-60mpg shouldnt be out of reach. I doubt the TD will get u that. Matt [Edited on 07-04-2004 by MattyB]

	not sure, the 1.5td is easily tunable to 100hp for £20, 140 with some more money spent. 1.7TDi is good for about 160-170hp reliably

	Christ they're going to be slow :( Whats the consumption like on the 1.5TD? Mainly motorway miles.

	Cheers matey. Anyon out there actually own a diesel? What sort of MPG do you get?
Red_SXi	posted on 7th Apr 04 at 10:24
	No 1.0 Diesels that i know of
Phil321	posted on 7th Apr 04 at 10:23
	No 1.0 Diesel engines in the C then? I didn't think there were but there are a few on AT.
Red_SXi	posted on 7th Apr 04 at 10:21
	The Corsa C Used to be a 1.7Di (forgot the BHP), and a 1.7Tdi (75bhp), now its a 1.3Cdti (don't know the BHP) and a 1.7Cdti (100Bhp)

	Which diesel engines are fitted to Corsa B/Cs? Also, what sort of MPG do you get out of them?
