Hi all,
Having lurked here for a while (the bug having bitten some years ago) people seem to know what they're talking about...[for usenet :-)]
I'm going to be in a position to buy a car soon and was thinking something 90 shaped. Trouble is it will need to be used for motorway driving occasionally so 60+ without sounding like it will fall apart would be good (I don't really enjoy driving so not that much just relly/parent visits!).
I can stretch to around 5000ukp and was thinking early 200Tdi since the earlier diesels have a bit of a reputation by this age (cues posts defending them). I'm no mechanic (yet?! pretty good at things technical though). Not been able to find anything about the petrol engines verdicts? Or should I keep looking out for Tdi's. Anything I should be checking?
Thanks for any comments
Alistair
