No, but I can see that the more relevant of the two examples I gave of a petrol Mk6 Golf TDI estate vs a diesel one, as in the ones with the matched PS figures, equated to £1210 difference price wise. Do you need glasses or are you perhaps just clutching at straws... -- JackH

No, I don't need glasses, I could see the bit where you claimed a �600 price difference quite clearly. I can also see where you're allowed to swivel on the price differential as much as you like, but I'm apparently supposed to pick a value and stick with it forever. Here's a clue, for the mathematically hard of thinking. If the average price differential is �1400 then the majority of diesel cars (>50%) cost over �1200 more than the petrol equivalent. So no matter how you slice it, you were wrong. Not that on past form you'll ever admit it.

Poor Mr Firth... caught with his pants down and now desperately trying to regain face. :'( Squirm as much as you like, anyone else can see who is right on this one. HTH, HAND etc. -- JackH
