Besides, from what ive read the D5 is one of the best, most refined diesels of the 2000s no? Believe me i've driven tractors and things close to them (90s land cruiser anyone?) and I would say the d5 is along way from one. Perhaps anyone who has a D5 will say what its like as an engine? Thought it was a good diesel but Im seeing opinion to the contrary here.
thanks

ive got aV70 163 bhp d5 , great car at what it does, very economical, superb build quality ,however i have to say i just prefer petrols, and if i wasnt doing the mileage i am i would have bought a t 5 without doubt they are just so much nicer to drive , as said the d5 does its job very well its just not a drivers car
