what sort of economy do you get?
Title: Re: Peugeot/fiat experts
Post by: AuRavelling79 on April 28, 2010, 08:53:44 am: Well - I have the 110HDi in my 406 car and get low 40's round town and high 50's on a gentle run.

The van is heavier and I hear of mid 30's and high 40's respectively. Strangely the more modern 110HDi engine is more economical than the 90hp or the earlier turboD.

well brother ;)

The tank has a small frame around the bottom that stops it from sliding around then the tank is full of empty plastic bottles that helps it to be baffeled, then it is strapped down to the van

Post by: bad trippy on April 28, 2010, 09:08:32 am: I have a 2001 expert with hdi engine, great van, drives like a car.
Not sure about the fiat as they have their own engines in then ie jtd
But like some else said i would deffo put up a few more quid for the hdi engine as opposed to the straight diesel lump
