Punto grande sporting

Hi all, im currently running my old punto R reg sporting, just ready to purchase a new Grande sporting, but need some help as to what model!!
i prefer the 1.9 diesel sporting, but cant seem to get a 56 or 07 plates for £7.5k!!!! so it looks like a 1.4 16v or a 1.4 t jet... Whats the difference, the only thing i can see is the turbo on the T jet, or does the 16 valve have a turbo or just injection? Whats the better model and why ? please advise, I have seen a 1.4 16v on a 56 plate with 11k on the clock for £7499!! caribeen orange it looks a real eye catcher!!
any help appreciated, im checking all dealers but if anyone knows a garage and you haven any info would be mint!!
laters Philer.

One is just a normal 1.4 16v the T-jet as you say is the engine reworked but with a turbo. If you have 7.5k to spend you wont get a T-jet for that as they have been out for less than a year i think. First ones were released on 57 plates iirc.
