We just ordered a 2005 2.0L turbo diesel Golf-with 103kw and 320nm (from 1750rpm!!) it gets along rather well (9 sec 0-100). It also gets 4.0L/100km on a run.......

My dad has had a TDI citroen forthe last year, and that was what set me onto it. The sulphur content is an issue with some makes, but it's mainly market trends that stop them coming here in large numbers. Australians just don't buy diesel passenger cars in volumes large enough to import. I have read that the diesel 1-series beemer is the pick of the 1 series stable, but of course we don't get them here...........

I do suspect that will change though as more people realise how brilliant they are.
