We'll all be driving tractors soon, what with OPEC's determination to send the oil price to $300 a barrel.

Which makes diesel about 10% more expensive than petrol, but gives about 50% more MPG.  The sums are simple, everything else just a matter of personal preference.

Angry wasp noises for petrolheads, flat torque "curve" at low revs for dieselheads...each to their own.

Me, I'm still waiting for the lazy manufacturers to create my ideal engine:  V8 petrol (speed, refinement) with variable cylinder-shutdown facility when I'm pootling about (anywhere between 2 and 5 cylinders would shut down), assisted by GM's forthcoming HCCI technology that relies on compression rather than spark-ignition up to 3000 RPM, and two Lithium Ion powered electric motors powering the wheels at town speeds, with the batteries partly charged by built-in solar panels in the roof.
