Talking This diesel has balls!

Listen to it when he gets on it a bit, those V8 CDI diesels must be a blast to drive with all that torque. Downshift whats that?

More E420CDI fun

Such a shame MB won't import the good stuff.

Holy cow those sound powerful!! They have a nice deep roar, sounds very similar to the twin turbo 5.5 Gasser in the SLR and AMG models!

I still love the roar of my 617 though, it has more of the awesome "diesel gurgle" I should make a video like that in my car....

Why can't they import the good stuff to this country. Thats faster than an M3! Although the M3 certainly is not lacking its own charm.

Hey, nearly at the end, is that a smart car followed by the sprinter? hard to tell as they have such low graphics, but it looks like it.
