Diesels are economical getting more miles from a full tank than a petrol equivalent, the problems with smoke result from poor or non existent servicing, if serviced properly and regularly, smoke is kept to a minimum, of course you'll always get a cloud of blue smoke in the morning when you start up, but this soon goes and isn't a serious problem.
It's kind of funny, as an American, to see the cars running on LPG bearing badges that say "Powered by Gas" considering that's what we call Petrol here in the US.
Up to this date I had 6 diesels and curently own my first petrol car VW Bora 1.4 16v. Yes its consumption is crap, yes it have almost no value compared to diesel equivalent BUT in thermes of reliability and smoothness diesel is NO MATCH compared to petrol cars. Speaking from 4 years of expirience driving my Bora and almost 100 000km.
Diesel is the Fuel of the Serialkiller,nothing stinks,looks,poisons,pollutes as good as Dieselfuel(oil)...Should be illegal as the Fumes are the most noxious and toxic available, and only ppl in vehicles right behind the Polluters can appreciate a Petrol Car as Diesel Drivers dont have to breath in the Discusting Fumes.....
Mine switches at 20c and takes the heat from the watercooled turbo. Changes over after 10 seconds before I even pulled out of the parking spot in the garage. Wehen freezing outside it takes 30 seconds. You can even start on LPG any car you want. Only problem is high load for the first few seconds as the vapourizer might freeze that's why you have a switch over temperature as high as 40c so there's 0% compromise
Paianni just because they give it a better exhaust and marketing gurus call it 'Blue Motion' or whatever its still rattely loud smelly. Here I'll think of a Buzzword GreenTech but its still a smelly diesel
Every petrol station has LPG here for atleast 35 years.
Funny to see Clarkson at the end ,when he had his own program

Oh god, it's that dark era when Kate Fucking Humble was on Top Gear.
I think she's hot. There, I said it.

Its because except for the USA the rest of the world does not call a Liquid a Gas.........
I expected them to say "powered by gas, but not in American sense"
I love diesel's ! They run better, last longer, and have amazing market value !

There are only one sort of fuel and it's diesel , change the oil and oilfilter often and they run forever 😎
Old diesels last longer, new ones dont, they're nothing but trouble.

Thank you ! Do you have some vids from 2000 ?
Lpg all the way even in 2017...
In East Europe e.g. plenty of buses and the lot drive on these. Passenger cars too
Ran 3 LPG cars for over 200,000 miles and overall it’s been a cheap and environmentally friendly experience reusing old petrol cars.
20 years later... the biggest scam in automotive history.
Lpg in Italy has been around since the 1960's ..,.... Landini top maker in this field....
is that Richard Porter at the start ?
Diesels have more grunt and sound nicer than petrols
Sound?
You rather mean a bag of bolts
Still need petrol to start the at the temperature of 40 C passes over lpg

Paianni No mate they are smelly
I meant the EU doesn't promote them anymore, not after the VW emissions scandal.
Paianni I understand and and completely agree
