i own a diesel car and i can tell you that i will always buy diesel cars from now on. first of all the new diesel cars tend to be more powerful. second: they consume less fuel. third: when you hit the pedal you can be sure you will get a HIGH SPEED. at least this is my opinion.

got to be petrol and the BMW 6 series coupe. very stylish. petrol better cause of exceleration and doesn't sound like a tractor. however diesel is less expensive over-all because its burns slower in the engine so you don't have to re-fill as much.
