Yes we do - but tbh they are developed over seas. The Frech and Germans were the true diesel pioneers until recent years. Diesel has been big in main land Europe for decades, where as its only in relatively recent years that the UK has taken it seriously. This as usual is down to the price for Fuel.
I was quite pleased the other day filling up the Pug with fuel when the price had come down from 129.9p per litre to 106.9p (now roughly $6.22 per US Gallon).
Citroen, Peugeot, Renault and VW were really the major developers of small diesel cars.
