    Welcome acdc and VW fan!

    Nice to have another Western Australian aboard (I'm homesick )

    Yes, there are +es and -es for both petrol and diesel. For me there is no argument but then I'm a Diesel Nut.

    I agree that the diesel is noisier, I agree it's not instantaneous in its pickup and I agree that it costs more to service. However I still believe it's quiet enough, the torque if you know how to use it more than compensates for the initial tack of take off (9.2sec to 100kph ain't bad by any estimation!) and in the long run it will be cheaper to service than a petrol equivalent. It's all about choice.
