I suggest that you consider all the diesels the same. For in practical purposes they are both EXACTLY the same but for a software upgrade in the 130 bhp models.

A software upgrade that can be applied to the 116 as an official X-Power upgrade that remains available through X-Part.

Therefore buy the best car you can find, and if it happens to be a 116, then have it within your budget to upgrade to the later specification.

Simples!
