Johannes, ek verstaan die verbruikstorie heelteemal, maar die genot van 'n petrolvoertuig is vir MY baie meer werd as die besparing in brandstof. To each his own. As ek so na die internasionale tendense kyk, is VW se onderduimsheid besig om diesel in ligte voertuie se kraantjie toe te draai.
Het al genoem dat dieseldampe STINK...................................

en natuurlik dat dieseldampe STINK ?

Both have their obvious advantages & advantages.
But diesel is dead, especially small cc diesels.
We are still lucky in SA because of lessor diesel regulations, but it won’t last forever. Eventually what’s happening in the rest of the world, where petrol engines are replacing diesels will filter into SA. It’s already happening with some manufacturers who are ahead of the trend.

A good example is the Haval H9 with a 2.0T engine & is compared to a Prado in terms of concept & offroad ability.
We will see more & more of these sorts of petrol engines

Maybe watch this - the Haval can't compare against the 9 year old Prado & uses way more fuel...
