I owned 3 4cyl diesel engines in the past - 136 bhp + 150bhp and 184. while power as gonne up refinement went the other way around. spare us the marketing bs and tell me that you think that engine goes with a 7.

Suddenly I'm reminded of this:
Then over at Carspyshots.net, I kept on saying that an S250 CDI = S-class for beggars.
My usual response: Do you even buy an MB S-class (or any kind of flagship vehicle) to save on fuel???
Then the European forumers always tell me about 'fleet cars' and stuff like that. I just tell them that IMHO, for a car of this class and category, anything below six cylinders is unacceptable.
If you want to save money and fuel, then you only have these options:
-Increase your income so you can buy more expensive cars with bigger engines
-Buy a Toyota Prius or VW Polo TDI instead
-Take Public Transportation
-OR WALK
Four cylinder engines DO NOT belong in flagship vehicles.
