Oddly, a 206 HDi 110 (1.6 turbodiesel) apparently did 0-60 in 9.1s.
The fastest 1.4 turbodiesel I have found so far doesn't crack 10s to 60mph, it's a 2006 Toyota Corolla D-4D 125, at 10.4s.

Pretty sure the 1.4d corolla was 13.3 according to honest john. The 1.6 petrol wad 10.2. Even the 2.0d corolla was 10.6. Getting under 10s is a tall order for modern diesel carsThe fastest 1.4 turbodiesel I have found so far doesn't crack 10s to 60mph, it's a 2006 Toyota Corolla D-4D 125, at 10.4s.

125bhp doesn't sound far off 10s to 60mph, to be honest.

It claims 10.4 further down the page. http://www.carfolio.com/specifications/models/car/...

An MG ZR 1.4 will do it 10 dead according to parkers if petrols an option. Which it should be

If it's wrong in carfolio, it's most likely the engine size that's wrong rather than the power or performance.

What's the project, Shoestringracer? Category-based motorsport? Speed record?
Well spotted. Might fit a class structure well. Still thinking... Chap called Matt Searle runs a diesel lupo on hillclimbs in the south west. It's modified and he's pretty committed..
Hi Dan,
Its a long story but I'm fed-up with my mk1 Golf never being right and was therefore thinking of entering a different car for a couple of events. I remembered, from somewhere, i thought, that the forced induction equivalence was 1.4 as was the diesel equivalence the other way, and that therefore a 1.4 turbo diesel would be in a class with the 1.4 n/a petrols. The records seem to be set by a Peugeot 106 which, assuming it is a 1.3 Rallye has a 100bhp and 0-60 of around 10 seconds. Given that some 1.4 diesels now make over 100bhp and tons of torque, I thought one might do well in the up to 1400 standard class, or chipped and in the 1400 road going.
However, now I look at the rules I can't see any mention of a diesel equivalence so a 1.4 diesel would be in with 2 litre n/a petrols and their 200bhp +.
Time to think again
Chris

The diesel factor does vary from championship to championship.. for example the BARC SBD regs state the following:
"Cars using forced induction will be classified as having an engine capacity increase of 40% and those using diesel fuel a reduction of 50% (eg. a 2000cc turbo diesel will be considered to be the equivalent to a 1400cc normally aspirated petrol engine)."
And they have a standard 1400 class. So you could run a very quick diesel there and be very competitive. What events were you thinking of??
