What years/models run diesel?

[Scotter]

Hi -

I'm in the market for a car. Not sure if I'll go new or used yet. If used,
not many years.
Is there a list out there of what years/models are diesel engines?
My goal is biodiesel conversion.

I'm posting this to three groups, including Audi & Volkswagen. I realize
Mercedez also makes diesel but that is a little out of my price range. If
someone wants to recommend other car brands that run diesel, please do.

Thanks!
Scott

Older Mbz's are plentiful, reliable and take to bio and vegoil nicely.
I'd recommend an early 80's model 300td.

If you want new you'll have to wait to at least third quarter before
VW brings out the new 2.0L TDI(Merc's Blue Tec engine w/o the urea
filter). You have to be careful when running Biodiesel. The new
engines are designed for VLSF.( as seen at any Diesel pump)
For used cars if you want something modern and runs on Biodiesel, your
only choice is VW TDI's, 3rd or 4th Gen either Jetta, Golf
sedan-wagon-hatchback. Many 3rd and 4th Gen TDI's run on homemade bio.
For more info go to www.tdiclub.com . Google TDI and the second entry
is TDIClub, right behind the Texa Dept of Insurance. ;-)

If you want more choices you have to move outside of North America.
