Diesels are sh1t! Most of them have no power, they have loads of turbo lag, they only rev to about 4500rpm, they chuck out loads of black smoke and diesel stinks! At least when you fill up with petrol there's a nice aroma, diesel smells horrible and gets all over your hands, not to mention the amount that gets spilled on the road causing accidents! I can't think of anything more dull than driving something with a diesel engine...

sums up an old diesel very well... newer TD's have lots of poke

agree about the old smokey ones, but would love a go in this one

It was boringly quiet, couldn't hear that pass you at Le Mans.
