Good post Snakey. There are pro's and con's to either type of engine. I just drove a friends Mondeo 2 litre petrol today. It was OK, but nothing special. After all the praise bestowed on the chassis by the reviewers I was disappointed*. And the engine really needed revving to make any progress. I couldn't help thinking if the TDCi engine would improve it.
* but then I've been spoilt by a tweaked BMW chassis and straight six engine
