  • Cant believe its a Diesel

    Being both a DS3 and a petrol head, always happy to chat on the benefits of the charismatic DS3, and especially the Petrol THP
    Friend of mine at work then suggests he's dumping his Fiat 500, and Big Beamer, and test driving a DS3 this weekend (Youve always lusted after mine Pete aint ya LOL)
    Now he tells me its a DIESEL - 115 Sport+ model:confused:
    Glad Ive persuaded him the the DS3 side, but a diesel (Starts trying to catch breath LOL)
    He does a lot of mileage so spose its a great choice. Just made me smile as I'm so biased to petrol
    What sort of price should he be PAying- think there about £16.5K on the web, (Cash purchase) but have advised if he goes to a dealer they try look after you more?

    Have a fun weekend Pete! Sign yourself on here!

    Best decision !

    He'll be endlessly talking about the following subjects in no time with you Chris... Epic MPG, His increased torque, His cheap cheap cheap tax, Cheaper insurance and how much more fun it is to drive on country roads

      Didnt get the 'fun' bit when I drove the diesel 90 courtesy vehicle
      Tax- fair point (Even the 155 cheaper than mine in tax)
      Diesel fuel aint cheap, cheap, cheap though is it (Then again mine uses Ultimate fuel which is 10p litre more- my choice tho)
      If he gets one hopefully we'll give each others a spin
      Zack- reckon you ought to give mine a spin sometime. Specially when it has full turbo back exhaust (Imminent) and Forge intercooler
      Save me searching for it- whats your torque Zack
      Pete's talking remapping already

        Tell him to sort a decent intake, his exhaust and then a map and you'll see what I mean by fun

        When the Hybrid turbo is back in and working Chris And figure should be close to 300 lbs by then.

        Going to speak to Jamie on Monday about intercooler options. I won't be going for the Forge one as the price is stupid. Will more than likely go for custom made - should be half the price !

                      Diesel fuel aint cheap, cheap, cheap

                      If you did something including a Sunday we'd be there for that if not too expensive to get over for the day.

                      Bit of a trend building here. lol

                              speaking of Diesels and Petrol DS3's... I use a diesel one for my lessons and mines a petrol - does anyone notice a major difference in driving them?
