I want to buy my first car...
but insurance is to high on a engine sized over 1.2

so recently i considered a diesel as i will be able to get a bigger engine...

but the bad point!!
the sound..

has anyone heard a good sounding diesel with an engine as low as 1500cc?

id like to get one..but i want a decent sound on it...
i know you can buy black boxes which improve the performance but is there anything i can buy to make a better sound,.... please u2u me

thank

my next car will prob be a diesel,used to have the old stle 306 dturbo.the torque on it was brilliant,especially for such a old high mileage car.but to answer your question not much.but please,wotever you do, DO NOT get an induction kit.made mine slower and sounded so rough.i think u r best to try to get your diesel as quiet as possible and go for the stelth look.lol.
