I'm struggling to find an advantage of having diesel 

All depends on your circumstances and type of commute/driving. For me:

My diesel is £30 a year to tax, with 50-65 mpg without even trying. (700+ from a tank)

Compared to £285 or £500 to tax per year and 25mpg 

Personally I enjoy the diesel driving experience, the low down torque and mid-range punch just when you need power without spanking the nuts off a small turbo petrol.

Petrols are without doubt more exciting.  Whilst I've never been against diesel power delivery, and modern diesels can be as quick (and as uneconomical), its rarely exciting. Even the quick ones.
