Yes, it is more of a "girls car" as my father said when he heard what I bought, but with the style 205 wheels and (as of today) 5% tinted windows, it still looks pretty damn good.
And it is hard to argue with 27mpg rather than 16mpg...
The only things I really miss are the split tailgate, the HID lights and the V8 sound. But that 580nm from 1750rpm makes up for it :-)

What is the price of diesel fuel verses gasoline in New Zealand?
