Yes, chuck, and Formula One cars are powered by petrol engines revving at 19,000rpm developing over 700bhp. But nobody would put one of those into a Ford Escort.
However, my post was somewhat tongue in cheek and I'm sure that there are some very good diesel powered cars.
Sorry to appear as a muppet talking crap. I wasn't aware that a bit of levity now and then was prohibited.

I have 2 diesel cars. Both do around 15 - 20 thousand a year. If you do less than 12,000 per annum, go for petrol. Diesel engines are killed by continually doing short journeys.
As an aside, I agree with those who have mentioned the clowns that post answers on here, who have nothing better to do than put asinine remarks and resort to using bad language. They must lead dreadfully boring lives.
