Thanks Billyo - I know diesels can bore the life out of me too - but to my surprise there are more quick diesels out there than you think.
For all round value I'm currently looking at the Mondeo 2.2 ST TDCI.
It puts out 155bhp as standard with superchips doing a mod to take that up to nearer 200. But its the torque thats inpressive - with the mod its got enough to pulling power to tempt Angelina Jolie!!!
On the subject of Saabs - my bro has a 2.2Tid 9-3 - its pretty quick, he kept up with a 350z for about a mile or so. And he has just started using veggie oil to run it only costs 30p a litre. |
