Looking to buy a Vectra - Petrol vs Diesel?
Discussion
Hi,
I have read a lot on these forums through Google Search Results, so thought I would join up and ask some questions for myself.
I am looking to buy an Automatic Vauxhall Vectra, with a budget of around £2000 and I was just wondering whether I would be better off getting a petrol or a diesel.
Having had a look on various sites, two cars I've seen are:
2006 Vauxhall Vectra 2.2SRi Estate
83,000 Miles
2006 Vauxhall Vectra 1.9CDTi SRi 150
135,000 Miles
Both are roughly the same price and while I'm not overly bothered about MPG (as we will do most driving in my wife C4 Picasso), I don't want something that's going to cost me an arm and a leg to get to work.
I've also read that buying used diesels is a dangerous task as repairs can be more costly. Is there any truth to this?
Thanks in advance
