Help choosing snotter no dpf
Discussion
Any suggestions before I go on a full in depth car search. A new job in the new year will have me, potentially covering more than my 4k average and parking in random places from multi stories to back streets where the car may be left for a few days.
If you could help me get up to speed with diesels I'd be grateful. A quick check suggest a DPF is not fitted to all pre 2009 cars and as I may have periods of only making short journeys I have a, perhaps illogical , fear of DPFs. Budget 3-4k and 5 door would be nice. Hit list is pre 2009 Volvo V50s, A3,A4s, Golfs, BMW 1/3 series.
My adored XFR may have to go on the promise of something mighty for my 50th or I might keep her as a second car if private selling proves as difficult as it seems out there.
Any advice, other options or getting me up to speed on diesel ownership would be most welcome.
