If your wallet can handle it get the TDV8 but the TD6 is a good workhorse if you are looking for a bargain. |

You could JUST stretch to a TDV8 then.

I would normally say go for a TDV8, but the cheaper ones are probably cheap for a reason. It may well be worth going for a TD6 with a good warranty or one that has had its gearbox replaced already. You don't want to buy a cheap TDV8 that has expensive problems which ruin you first year of ownership 56 TDV8 Vogue SE

For that sort of money i would go for TD6 as you will get a low milage car that has been looked after.

I bought a 2003 TD6 two and a half years ago when the difference between a TDV8 and a TD6 was much bigger. Mine had had the gearbox replaced. Even now I wonder if I made the right decision. If I was buying now I would definitely stretch to the TDV8. I like my car but the engine is really agricultural at times and it's never that refined. On the motorway you're doing nearly 3000rpm which is just too high. It is also really quite slow.

In the uk at least the petrol versions are usually a little cheaper to buy than the diesel counterparts.

Better smiles per mile, but per gallon? You'd need an awful lot of smiles for that. |

As you know for that budget I would look for a nice 4.4V8 or 4.2V8SC. Just bought another one myself for personal use. Will post soon. |
