Hello from me..

Hi Mark,

I have gone for the GTC 1.6t but looking back I would probably have preferred a quickish diesel (bi turbo) for the torque and cheaper running costs. The 1.6t engine needs thrashing a bit to release the horsepower, if you're coming from a VXR the lack of torque may be quite noticeable..

I'm averaging 26.8mpg out of the 1.6t engine in mine, you could probably come close to doubling that in the diesel. All comes down to preference at the end of the day, the diesel will feel quicker at low revs im sure. Good luck with it
