Hello to all, been viewing the classified section for years but never posted.

I need some knowledge!!

I am trying to find a low mileage, fun, diesel with a greater engine capacity than 2 litre due to increased mileage allowance for a diesel car over 2 litre (16p per mile).

So far the list is quite boring:

Civic 2.2
Accord 2.2
Avensis 2.2
Mazda 6 2.2

There must be something more exciting available, ive got about 20k to spend.
Help!!

You don't say what size car you're after, but you mention the Civic, so how about the latest Mazda3 - 2.2 diesel, 185 bhp, they go pretty well
