Focus driver said he'd have been a lot quicker if his vision hadn't been impaired by the clouds of diesel fumes!!!!!
Only jesting. I don't think anyone can deny that modern diesel engines when paired up with a good chassis are a force to be reckoned with. Although the chassis is crap, a mapped gttdi 150 golf will easily pull to 60 in under 7 seconds, which is on a par with the 2.8v6 4 motion if you can get the power down (review on superchips website).
Personally though, I think diesels are a lazy drivers car unless you're doing more than average milage. A lad at work is getting rid of a 230RX8 to get a 320d, he does about 5k a year. What is the point, especially with diesel at 10p a litre more.
Petrol all the way for me

Agreed, mate. Diesels are for the 'lazier driver' but they are now being developed nicely, so I would consider one. (I'm becoming lazy!) 230 RX8 - I don't see the point in that engine at all! 20mpg wtf! I'm getting a bit bored with ringing the neck of my Cup to get it going. Although, I did have a quick drag against a 197 and Scooby last night. Not much difference between the Clios. I wasn't really gaining but he did get the power down first. Scooby didn't have any probs!

Grip, grip and more grip. Think the dci meg would be a great everyday car.
Tiger R6 / Saxo Vts
DCI meg beat the trophy by 0.2 of a second, and the R27 by 0.4 of a second.
Focus ST has softer suspension then the Meg - but that's because it's designed more as a fast cruiser then a real weapon.
