VERY COOL!
I hope that one comes across the pond! From the reading I've done it is very difficult to recognize it as a diesel. Typical Honda refinement.

Just viewed the link, very informative, makes my vtec look a little primitive!!!!, Honda, you have to give em a nod for brilliant engineering
perhaps we will see this here one day soon, still our gas/petrol is still cheap enough for this canny scot!!.
