strange they do not get the 1.6 cr tdi only the 1.2cr tdi?

So you have the choice of

1.2 75HP 3 cylinder 12v petrol

1.4 105HP 4 cylinder 16v petrol

1.2 75HP 3 cylinder 12v (Common Rail) Diesel.

I'm surprised that the 1.2 petrol and diesel engines have the same power, having said that, the diesel is turbocharged.

Jim, they are different. The 1.2 3cylinder diesel has huge amounts of extra torque over the petrol version (can't remember the figure but it's huge by comparison), The diesel is considerably more powerful and faster too.
