want a cheap diesel to get me form A to B and save me some money on petrol

Any ideas? I have been looking at 306 d turbos etc but they seem to go for a bit too much. The cheaper the better but must have a few months MOT or more.

I think you could probably find a mk3 astra diesel in your price range

Should go for a turbo diesel corsa, I had a shot of one that was tweaked, was just as fast

You are stupid if you think buying / insuring / running a second car is going to save you money over driving your 1.6 corsa all the time.....
