That's always the problem - it's a French Pug, not a BMW or Merc, If you can live without the badge/keyring etc. then the 2.2 HDi is a stonker. At the age of 36 (yep, I'm old!) it's a good way to play unfair games with three litre petrol cars.

Lose the badge for sure, engage Celtic for an ECU re-map and go and charge about in a pretty car in a way that disturbs owners of Mercedes SLK320's.

Diesel engines can deliver silly performance now, manufacturers keep the bhp down just so that can justify selling the occasional petrol fuelled car.
