Seems that the 90 bhp has a solid flywheel, we fitted one in a C4 this week, this was a solid unit, with the 90 bhp diesel.
Still think it's best to stick with the dual mass if that was originally specified.
I wouldn't be put off buying a car with a DMF, I think they drive beautifully, just expect to have to fit one at some point in its life.

dual mass if broke replace with the same shop around for a good price and the important bit use the right tool for it .
for example my mates vectra c fly+clutch+ slave :http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VAUXHALL-VECTRA-1-9-CDTi-Dual-Mass-Flywheel-Clutch-Kit-150-BHP-C-05-08-150PS-/110532711001?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item19bc435259 a 380 £ + tools :130£+ - together 510£
the trick is the tool i did my first wan with a tripod puller didn't work as it should WY ?
because you need to compress al the fingers of the clutch the same{flat} .
if the clutch is still good you can get away with just the flywheel but if its a keeper think of all the work again when the clutch fails.
so to me its false economy if its a keeper if its for sale so cheep as possible.
had to be said my mate was askt 2000`£ for replacement .
