May be twin turbo diesels are the next Big Thing, and you can stick with Beemers, PU: www.channel4.com/4car/road-tests/driving-impressio...l

Probably the best thing that anyone could have done to a Vectra.

The 2.0 GM diesel unit for all its 16 valves is rubbish.

There again, VW diesels in Fords, PSA and BMW diesels in Rovers, BMW units in Vauxhalls - nothing new under the sun.

The thing is it's a good engine!
