Once I get mine running, I know of one I will be able to smoke. It's my friends Geländewagen that he swapped a Diesel into. It's a heavy beast.

yeah got beat to bits by my brother's W210 E220 CDI, once that beast spools up and punches its sideways action all the way till 70 km/h with sooty exhaust and each gearshift squats the car to the ground - the mk1 TD of a freinds that I refurbed pulls hard - but nothing compared to the MB; you gotta respect 258 lb/ft torque at 1900 rpms and that slick autobox
Diesel IS the future

could be both... but you don't hear of anyone trying to race (and win) vs a manual box.  "ah damn that manual box beat me again!" "maybe it's because it weighs about 100 lbs..?" "i'll beat it one day!!!"

 :lol:
