Agreed that diesels can go to higher miles, and I would buy a cheap diesel with high miles, but if I am stretching the budget (which I could) I don't want to then also get stuck with something unreliable. If I'm investing 2.25k for example, It has to then be low miles and nice enough to justify it. I'm not going to buy a very high miles example of a nice car over a great example of a less nice car.
Really don't want to spend loads (to me) on a car, then get stuck with a huge repair bill and be thinking if I pay it it's loads and I'll lose too much on the car if I move it on when not running.
In my mind I'd like to either:
1. Buy something for 0-1400ish that is ok, does the job, isn't shite, is really cheap to run and lasts a few years. If it does ever die the max I can ever lose is the purchase price - scrap value = quite a few hundred quid.
2. Spend a decent bit extra and get something that has a very good chance of not sticking me with a massive bill that is also fairly nice.
I am beginning to wonder whether or not I should just get a cheap derv 306 now and run it for a few years for next to nothing.
It is definitely a very economical choice.
Love the seats in this, but it's an XUD.
