HI, My current car is a 2.0 TDI, I've had it 2½ years and put on 23000miles in that time, I've absolutely loved the car since day one with or without its little issues now and again
my issue is as you may have guessed, I just don't do enough miles for a diesel, and the miles I do are mostly town, but every week I give it a decent motorway run.
I've seen an identical car to mine but its a 1.6 petrol and I assume it'll be 8 valve, as its 100bhp, I know it'd be the slowest car I'll have driven... ever...
but I wanna know whether its a problematic engine or reliable, I'd rather have a lower maintainence (and cheaper to sort problems) engine with slightly higher running costs, than cheaper to run expensive to fix, its on about 70k miles 53plate
