I disagree, to see the same mpg from an engine enjoying 15 years of further technology including, but not limited to, vnt turbos, drastically lowered cr, pre-hp fuel regulation and variable valve technology is pretty bloody appalling. Especially when compared to what manufacturers have achieved with petrol engines in a similar timeframe. But you know all that already, it just leaves no room for pedantry and where's the fun in that.
