But since putting a diesel in my e30 I love them. Would rather drive a diesel over a petrol car anyday of the week, Probably why I hate the petrol e36 lol.

That is a good point, the Diesel versions of the same car are usually more to buy. My Mondeo ST for example. I could have bought the petrol 3000cc for about £1000 less. Same car, same spec, only difference was the engine. It was a close call and I nearly went for the petrol but sense provailed in the end. That £1000 has already been worth it with the fuel saving over the last 18 months (approx 25,000 miles).
