this is not really the point. Any powerful tool (not just a car) is of course dangerous in the hands of anyone who doesn't know how to use it well.

Who said give it in lower end versions? If you read my message right - i said there will be takers if they bring a higher spec one with more power. This is effectively happening in petrol now - just like the 1.4/1.6 versions of most mid size cars! The main reason to pay a premium for a Fiesta 1.6 or a City VTEC over the regular 1.4/Gxi is performance. Do you feel no one is buying it? Then why not in Diesel if its safe to supercharge it!

BUSA, i am not saying don't Pete the car nor am i against Petes' product. I am sure if i drive a Pete'd Dezire/Verna i would enjoy it immensely too. Everyone can decide what to do with their cars - and enjoy it I am just saying there's a lot more to it that just the money angle.

just my 2 cents. i have no intentions of starting an argument.
