    They're both 150bhp models DZ so they should be as fast as each other

    It's a nice engine for a diesel :):p

    The dipped beam is good but not as good as the Astra but there's so little in it that I probably won't notice in a few days. The full beam there isn't any difference that I can see. The light does seem to be slightly better quality to xenons though.

    All in all its 6 of one, half dozen of the other.

    Its gas, I've been back and forth for ages, actually had the plastip for 3+ months while debating it :D

    But since the wheels are on I think they look well, But my missis is giving out to me, shes not impressed. Its a marmite situation I guess.

    I love those 300ZX Nissans. Hopefully I'll be fortunate enough to own one someday.

    Picked this up recently, a nice clean corolla saloon. 2 owners from new and in great condition getting a bit grubby now though and really could do with a wash.

    Nice one!

    Check oil levels frequently (even once a week). Some of them burn a bit too much of it. ;)
