  with diesel engines this is the sort of smoke you get when there is excess fuel at start up i.e. it is effectively unburnt fuel, and this would be consistent with its smell. The car always starts very quickly so it is not due to diesel building up due to long cranking before starting. I assume therefore

• Is there such a car? 12 Aug 2013 (Forum)
  a particularly large car but it does have to be big enough to comfortably fit 4 of us in. Something like a Toyota Aygo would be useless for example. No preference over petrol or diesel. I want: To pay less than £9,000 It to be high miles per gallon so fuel costs are as low
