If you're Irish this is ok, Scottish no so much.

Theres a thread on this already I think.

why?

At a guess it’s because I like Mark hate how a diesel car drives .i can get how some people like the power delivery and low down response of the diesel but it’s just not my cup of tea .

If Gareth didn't like the sound and smell then he's in the wrong line of work

But yes totally agree, low down torque is fun for a while, it until you get into a petrol which drives well. Hate getting back into derv cars

After a while the sound of a Scania v8 starts to just slightly irritate you if you keep the wee end switch turned on lol.

I'm assuming the wee end switch is what makes the exhaust grumble and roar? Sure most of those yokes are double glazed, probably because Scania knew they were coming over here for the cowboys hahaha

torque spike vs torque curve.
all those silly numbers & it's still slower than its petrol variant.

Even if diesels were faster it's hard to beat petrol for aural stimulation!
