You can buy a decent car for what Opti pays in tax on the jag and the ancient Vauxhall.

100% french including the drivetrain, might even be thrown together by the British hating cheese eating surrender monkeys, certainly not comparable to the 1.6 CDTi you currently know  :y

Right.....that is all sorted then. Mark says it is utter crap, and he knows far more about cars than an elderly scouser of ill repute. :)

From Auto Express:

Those not put off by recent scaremongering will be well-served by the diesel, however. The 118bhp unit is one of the more refined offerings in this sector, staying subdued unless revved hard and producing a broad spread of power to ensure that you don’t need to do so. It’s flexible and happy to be driven about at very low revs, while a claimed combined economy figure of over 70mpg isn’t to be sniffed at  :P
Mark is right (of course) that it's a completely different unit to the one I have (165bhp), and I'll probably miss the extra horses. But it's a bus, so I wouldn't expect to be racing around in it.

47bhp might not sound alot, but you will definitely feel it in the hills and with a load, especially if you get the 4x4 Grandland X.
