Looks nice - although I'm not sure about "ONLY 2 MPG LESS THAN TD6 DIESEL ENGINE!!!" |

You should look into the real world figures... Although 2MPG is probably "over-egging" it a smidge. To get the TD6 to have any sort of reasonable performance, one generally needs to give it some poke. A lot less poke than one would give the V8. Therefore the MPG suffers - I can get 25MPG if I'm super gentle and I'm running LPG... Considering how much extra you'll pay for a TD6 that's a hell of a lot of petrol. |

I should imagine that once you also work out the extra cost of diesel there's not a lot in it I'm getting around 19mpg on petrol "RANGEISM WILL NOT BE TOLERATED"

I agree, the difference is probably marginal and having owned both, the petrol is much nicer to drive. I'm currently on a td6. They are slow as in standard form, so I fitted a cheap tuning box. It's made it much more drivable. On a recent 500 mile round trip it returned 32mpg doing around 70. The same trip without the box returned 25mpg.
