Diesel is Best

Had this car for 2yrs now and the diesel engine is good, getting around 56mpg and thats a mixture of driving on motorways, town driving and A and B roads.
Had no major problems with the car or engine but i have had some minor problems like a ratteling noise coming form a heat shield possible around the turbo or exhaust when the car is cold doing about 30mph and 1,300rpm in 2nd,3rd and 4th gear. Had it to the garage they can't find it. Front tyeres lasted me 29000 miles and have had no problems of the inside of the tyres scrubbing. Road tax has dropped from £35 a year to £30 a year. Co2 emissions 119g/km
