I reckon he can stick a sticker on the bumper saying "You have just been overtaken by 'n diesel !". Damn that thing is impresive :thumbs:.

Have you ever driven a "modern" diesel or only heard them when they were pulling away from you? They are a far cry from being "agricultural".

As to the nay sayers, seriously go a drive a modern day diesel.
Ok challange here...
Hands up from the guys who have owned a post 2000 diesel, and give us a +1 or -1 if you liked or disliked your diesel...
+111 (I have owned 3 diesels, 1 merc and 2 bmw's) and their epicness overwhelms me....

It's in 'Sport +' mode, stiffens the suspension right up and tweaks the drive trains performance, my 535d does the same, DSC switches of partially. Throttle respose becomes razor sharp too.

The display very clearly says the car was in manual, and you could see the driver shifting in the reflection of the speedo.
I said "agricultural" with tongue firmly in cheek.:flyfun:
