Being a diesel driver, at this time of year I always start to think of possibly moving away from diesel
What with fuel economy dropping in winter ( additives added to diesel to stop gelling of fuel and colder temperatures), the general cost of servicing (60,000 mile service due) and starting a diesel on a cold morning sounds like a mechanics tool bag being shaken, and only driving 36 miles a day.
I am feeling the pull towards a small petrol automatic car.
I do however love the way a diesel engine pulls with its low down torque, great for start stop driving in traffic.
Come the summer i dont have any doubts with diesel engines, its just this time of year.
Am I wrong ?
