Re: petrol or diesel

I own a 3.0D facelift. We've ended up doing less mileage than expected (less than you) so with hindsight I would have preferred a V8. The diesel is reasonably quick and torquey on the motorway but it's not the smoothest. The SL60 has a 6L V8 though. The main reason for buying that was to scratch the V8 itch. It's a shame that might have to go before long. The only trouble with that is that we don't live in Deutschland.
