All those tech advances that have worked on diesels over the past decade are getting to the point where they're now robust enough to cope with petrol temperatures, hence all the small direct-injection VNT turbo petrols now starting to arrive. Diesel motors are going to go up in price and down on mpg on the low end when they make them comply to the same emissions as the petrols in a little while too. Compression-ignition petrols aren't far away from production, neither are cylinder discharge plugs, so when that happens you'll have the mpg of a diesel with the torque, power and rev-range of a petrol. ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

just seen an article on bbc, saying nearly 90% of new cars made will be diesel in the next 10 - 15 years, so it looks like there might not be an option but to get a diesel ________________________________________ Team 6 Cylinders |

Petrol hot hatches are getting up to 50mpg now.Noise, smoke & more dangerous fumes for lungs & a less rewarding drive in a diesel. Drove a Mondeo St diesel & it was pants compared to the six in terms of fun |
