Who would buy a 4cy and/or a diesel Falcon?

And to the others, yes I have 4 late model diesels - The 2.5 and 3.2L Tritons (Rubbish and only just passable respectively) and the Hyundai i30 and Santa Fe. They both ran out of puff too quickly - it was almost as if someone had put a golf ball under the accellerator - ie they change just as a petrol motor would come on power.

And all the other things, pumps are filthy, sound like ****, too nose heavy etc.

And don't give me a 'ooh you haven't driven a $45k euro diesel' because that's as good as a $200k ferrari to me - I ain't ever gonna buy one so the argument is moot.

Next time you see a 330D BMW show him just how slow it is compared to your LPG AU..........

13.x second 400m, 5.x 0-100, 250km/h (limited) and 1000km out of a 60 litre tank all from a 3 litre turbo diesel in a car that weighs a few kilos more....

A falcon that has the same performance as the I6 petrol yet gets far better fuel economy and range without the loss of cargo space has got to be a good thing.
