Fuel of my future

I am not sure whether to buy a used Audi 2.0 litre 140 TDI or a 2.0 TFSI, around 70k miles. I am aware that the diesel will give more mpg but as I will not be doing much mileage, I wondered what your views are on servicing costs for the future of the two engines?

The 2.0TFSI is nicer to drive and more reliable than the diesel.
