Title: Boxer Diesel...
Post by: madgaz on June 27, 2008, 05:07:18 pm
...what do you guys reccon of it?
 HERE  (http://boxerdiesel.com/)

If things go the way I want them to (and the company is still about :o) I might just be changing the BMW in December as I need something a little bigger. (Estate preferably)
For some reason I have to have a diesel :( but thought this could possibly be a reasonable substitute!

The main question is...


...would I get more or less flack for driving a Subaru compared to that which I get now for driving a BMW? ;D ;D ;D

You'd get none from me, I've always been a legacy/outback fan  TBH, and the new line up looks spot on. I'd have one!!  8)
