Long live petrol V8's that dont require turbos to wind em up and dont smell like a bunch of rotten rags soaked in old contaminated oil an dont belch gallons of thick black smoke.
Its not a myth that deisels are fowl smelling lumps of things, dont beleive me, try working closely by em in the heavy construction industry.
Its 100% not a myth that they belch thick black vile smelling smoke, especially busses, trucks, tractors, diggers just to name a few.. An Id know standing beside the smelly things..
And the noise of the things, rattly trap sounding things.. Theres a few that live in my street, all newer ones and their way louder than any of the petrol cars in the street..
No idea huh?? come try working where I work for a week..
As for economy, Iv never bought a car for that, and never will to the day I die.

Again the diesels you talk of are probably dirty old 2 strokes from the 1960s. Go and drive a modern one from Europe. And yep I'm a diesel mechanic at a DAF and KW dealer, which are one of the cleanest things on the road with todays emmission sytems as required by Euro 4 and 5 standards, which passenger cars also have.
