When I picked up my car, I asked if I needed to take it easy for the first 1000 miles, the salesman just told me there's no need but just not to go "Stupid". I still don't feel redlining it yet but maybe after a couple more weeks I'll give it a go! ![]() |

I think once you've accepted / budgeted for the rough difference between petrol and diesel rising prices affect both anyway. The next few years will dictate whether i go diesel or petrol next time.

I personally like the refinement of petrol engines and the extra rev range but I do like the low end torque of the diesels, very useful nipping in and out of town. |

My Focus ST would have been the perfect solution had it not been for the 22-24mpg I consistently got. The 2.5 litre 5 cylinder turbo petrol engine was frankly amazing. Petrol refinement and free revving ability, diesel like torque and a fantastic exhaust note!
