We went out one Sunday on the rare occasion me and my wife were both off......done around 200 miles and I used just over 3.5 gallon.....would never get that with my petrol car.

But surely this is a reflection on the advances made in car design generally. My 2013 2.0 CDTi was the most refined car I'd ever had (over the course of over 40 years, which encompassed everything from Fords - Anglia, Capri, Sierra - Vauxhalls - Cavalier Mk II to Vectra B - and even a gorgeous 1973 Humber Sceptre).
And yet my 2018 Grand Sport has managed to top the lot, and it's petrol. The performance is directly comparable to the 2 litre diesel it replaced in my garage, and the improvements in equipment levels, driver convenience and general driver experience make it a far better vehicle irrespective of fuel type. And no DPF! (Shame about the mpg)2018 1.5T SRi Nav
Bi-colour 18" alloys, de-chromed grille and foglights, full heated leather, reversing cam with park assist, heated front screen and steering wheel, blind spot monitoring, self parking (used once, it's crap!), Nextbase 522GW front & rear dashcams
