Currently looking around for an older Vauxhall diesel ( 1997 - 2001 ) and
in my occasionally faulty mind I seem to recall hearing (long ago) that
they were fitted with either an Isuzu engine or ???.

vauxhalls own engine

I was also told to avoid one of them at all costs. Can anyone help me out
with the other engine and which you should avoid.

having worked on both model of engines id have to say the Isuzu engine is
the strongest out of the two & had the least problems, we use to service
vauxhall taxis before they were replaced with VW's & they all had the Isuzu
engine fitted.
