Diesels are motorway darlings which they are designed forn not city driving. Here in belgium everyone wanted to buy a diesel because of cheap fuel price and discounts. But now with the rising diesel prieces, the petrolheads are returning. AND BOY THE SMOKE IT MAKES, YIKES i feel unhealthy whenever i see a diesel accelerating and then light up a smoke
Sorry never seen any diesel smoke out of the back of my diesel civic or any other. Mainly see a black plume of smoke coming out of a F*rd or VW diesel though
