Hi all.
Just changed my car to a Saxo diesel and I'm missing the nippy turbo effect I used to take for granted on my Xantia.
Does anyone know if it is possible to fit a turbo to the little car?

It may be possible. 504GLD made a reference to a TUD3 turbo conversion in this thread, along with a general discussion on other aspects of turboing a diesel Pug 106.

Anders is right though, the standard pump will not have the components fitted for boost pressure fuelling compensation so you'll need to fit another pump for best results.
My view is that it is doable but unless you resist the urge to go for high boost, reliability may suffer.
