And I agree with him. Filthy, noisy things.

I could never figure out how the government could justify on the
one hand requiring incearsingly tougher emissions standards for
petrols, and on the other encouraging the use of diesel.

Diesel engines are inherently dirty - ever sat behind a brand
new diesel being floored? Big cloud of black smoke.


My feeling exactly.


I agree. They get better after being run in a bit, BUT they all need
some form of exhaust treatment. I have noticed - because I don't do it
often, that If I tackle the M25 in teh daytime, I end up with a
headache, and asthma and a post nasal drip and a raw throat and a cough.


That conforms my assumption. You are a basket case.
