I have never seen one with the 2.0L turbodiesel.

It's master of none but a decent jack of all trades. The floorpan is shared with the Peugeot 306/Citroen Xsara so you could improve the handling of you wanted with aftermarket parts.
The 2.0 DW10 Seems ok in this 8v 90bhp version. No intercooler, no dual mass flywheel, so relatively safe for a modern turbo diesel.
Remapping seems simple, but I think I will have it run for a while longer before considering that.
The 1.6Hdi is a steaming pile of turd by most accounts - mainly due to its inability to cope with neglect. Properly maintained they seem ok
