There are serveral reasons:
  • the bucking of the diesel engines is annoying me. Sure when you're drivin, the modern diesels are very quiet, but when the car stands still...
  • i don't like the motor characteristic and this short speed range where the diesel has got its full torque.
  • with my mileage per year the diesel isn't that much cheaper that it would be interessting for me

It's the 8 speed transmission.
