I have a A4 1,9 Tdi (130Hp)
I drive mostly on highways and love the grunt and mid-speed acceleration (60-120 km/h).
I just tried a 1,8T (petrol), and it felt weak compared to the diesel, same with the 2.0NA engine, and the 2.8.
I get the economy AND the (useful) power. My next car will definately also be a diesel.

Diesel engines have come along way over the past few years. They are much quieter, more powerful, and nowhere near as dirty as they used to be. MB/VAG diesels are amazing engines in Europe. The obvious fuel economy is great, but the power and especially TQ of the TDI is amazing. I would certainly consider one if they become big in the U.S. which I believe they will over time.

that's because of your crazy high gas prices...if i was paying 8 bucks a gallon i'd have a diesel too...as a matter of fact, even with our prices at 3 bucks a gallon i'd consider getting a diesel a4

Diesel is more expensive in UK than petrol,so its down to economy and not price of the fuel but on average diesel cars here
are approx £1500 -£2000 pound more expensive to buy and req servicing more often.
But father-in-law had a volvo s60 d5 which was awesome at overtaking.
There were rumours that Skoda were going to do a vRS Octavia diesel, (180 bhp)but their current (diesel)vRS Fabia was quicker round
Top Gear track than a mini cooper.
