Well if i did town driving mainly id go for a petrol so then id atleast have something to play with on weekends

If i did motorway miles then a tdi all the way

Stop start driving affects diesels too and at the higher cost?

Its what i found out which lead me to a 2,8 beemer over a diseasel

Well my diesel does atleast 40MPG around town.

In the 2 days I had the Nissan Qashaqi I only managed 35mpg over 80miles of mixed town/a-roads....I would have gotten similar in the Gti

this is the price you pay for being young

The first thing is to pay your insurance up front to stop being charged up to double for paying monthly.

Even if you cant save it, maybe borrow from parents and pay back monthly without the huge interest from the company to borrow their money.

But that's a silly great lump!

Anyway a TDI mk3 can be had for what £500? That'll practically pay for itself if you're foing the mileage to justify it.

My point is diesels only come up trumps on long journeys, round town they arnt much in it.  Comparing my 2.8 to a remapped mk4 pd130. And petrol is cheaper it kinda offets the difference if you get my drift?

My old mk2 golf 1.6 on a weber got 44mpg driving at 60, my Beemer gets 40mpg driving at 80mph

Cheers lads. was thinking of a 1l Corsa or a derv MK3. Or my bro on law has a 125 bike. Will need a CBT tho and insurance will probs be high anyway...

get a pd diesel.. cheap on fuel (my leon done 50mpg all day long) great tuning potential.. and was relatively cheap to insure compared to my GTI i had

[T_J_G]

Just relatively expensive to buy...
