OS/RVR With a Diesel?
I wish... I drove a 5 speed diesel Peugot in Monte Carlo last year and it was a blast. It was remarkably clean and the torque was awesome. So would you buy a diesel powered OS/RVR?

Yes I would have bought the diesel if they offered it here .

I had a Mitsubishi delica sports gear 4X4 with a 2.8 turbo diesel in the Philippines It was great .

WoE!
Why couldn't Mitsu bring that platform here to the States?

There are lots of the Delicas up here - perfect snow ski bum truck! There seems to be areal market for RHD 4WD cars/trucks in the west.

Yep I'd get one if they'd offer it. I bet the fuel mileage would be great as well.

Maybe the new 2016 will have the 4M41? Intercooled turbo diesel! 3.2. In the new slightly larger body that would make for an incredible GT version!
