Yeah, I know being able to achieve a top speed with overdrive ≠ wanting to attain that speed. From what I've read top speed of diesel is 45, petrol 55, add 10mph for overdrive.
That's true and if you're buying a SIII as a classic you really want the original engine, not a TDi.
Those are all good points. I wouldn't want a 110 or a 130 because parking. V8 cos thirsty.
Would be interested to see details of the TD5 out of interest if you could send me something?
