I drove a Clio 3 with dci 3 years ago. It sure beat the hell out of the 1.6NA and Mercedes OM616/617 crap that I have. But I live in the enlightened US of A, so that's all the experience I have...

no meaning to offend, but the fact is that mercedes om 615-617 are the worlds most durable diesel engine in personal automobiles and om601-603 comes in second (allthough some om603 have problems with bad cylinder heads)
-
Sorry, I didn't mean to offend anyone, in fact I own a total of 4 OM616/7s and they are the best in terms of durability . Its just a lament that we can't seems to get anything in the US that wasn't designed in the 1960s.....

yeah i do agree the old mercedes diesel are not the fastest and not the most economical either :P
