    Question Would you order a Diesel for your next Volvo if available?

    I'm going to forward the poll results to Volvo once compiled...

    They couldn't care less unless there was at least 1000 people who wanted a diesel on this poll, and that won't happen here

    I would buy a used D5 from Canada right now if it could be legally imported.

    That would be very cool, assuming we could get the D5 in Canada.... I've certainly never seen or heard of one.

    I'm with Scope. If I could tackle a new Volvo (bought mine from CPO Program) I would seriously consider a diesel.

    I will only buy a diesel if no other reasonable option is available.

    I would prefer a D5 with a 6 speed manual, but being in the US means that I may never get the opportunity to have a D5. If not a D5, I'd also like a T6 with 6 Speed manual, in fact if an XC70 or S80 were available now with a 6 speed manual I would buy one tomorrow...
