Remember also that the Deisel costs £700 more, so to save this on fuel you have to do over 25k a year, (My Dad worked it out, he's a driving instructor, he's got the 1.7Dti) I've driven it too, its not bad but i prefer my petrol, which dont sound like a hair drier due to my Exhaust and BFO

modern diesels don't smell !!

You can't see anything come out of the exhaust, nor can you smell anything.

And if you could smell it, it wouldn't smell any worse than the fumes out of a petrol car

& not even my sister's 1995 corsa 1.5TD smells !
