Hi. Bummer on the stock situation. I have 2l ultra (190) auto, very impressed, on a run around 50-55 mpg, strong mid range loads of torque very impressive for a 2l, if you put it in sport and really rag it it's a good performer but is also very good just plodding along. Do not think all this fuss around diesel is all it's cracked up to be, all in all a very good, comfortable, can be quick car. Are you thinking of a diesel with a good spec ?
