Will do, but to be honest I only had a ten minute test drive with pd engine. CR feels very smooth and linear in its power delivery. A mate of mine has pd engine and I'm hoping to catch up with him in the next couple of weeks.

looks nice mate!!

Nice car enjoy

Nice car.

Baby? Surely not.

Stealth bomber!

Nice one!

I do like those rims

Yes agree love the VRS rims better than my Ambiente ones.

Now you need to darken the windows..............

Looks good, enjoy

Looks great :-0

Which dealer did you go with ?

Tidy

Very nice, enjoy.

Nice hearse! Mean! Forgive my ignorance, but what is the CR engine? And how does it differ from a PD engine please?

CR - Common Rail

Has a pipe which is under pressure (the Common Rail) and uses tiny valves (often piezo electric) to release the fuel when required.

PD - Pumpe Duse

Pressurises the fuel at the/each injector on a cycle - pressure/squirt

At least that's how I understand it.

It is piezo

see this website quote"

The new common rail injection system is equipped with state-of-the-art piezo injectors. Its eight-hole injectors can achieve up to five separate injection events every combustion cycle.

Is still called a COMBI in Ireland so just us British that call it an estate

Got it from Aughrim Motors, the second new car I've bought off them. None of the other dealers could match their deal

Nice one!

I think a set of front and rear OEM Mud Flaps would finish it off.

A mate of mine has pd engine and I'm hoping to catch up with him in the next couple of weeks.

:eek::eek: Wow!! Is the PD really that much faster than the CR?
