Looking at getting a diesel cruiser, love the 60 but 12ht 60's are getting on a bit now and good ones are really hard to find.
Just wondering how the N/A 80 series stacks up against the turbo of the 12ht?
Need it a s a DD, with the occasional trip away.
Any info would be great.

N/A diesel 80's are slower than a wet week!! you would be better off with a 2H 60.

any chance at getting an 80 with factory turbo? 12ht smokes along compared with the 1hz, but may have a lot to do with weight. Difference between leaves and coils hold any sway? Love my 61, but it drives completely differently to my 2h cruisers.
