Downside:It was a hundred miles away, so we had to hire a car to view it. Left at 4:00pm, got home at 9:30pm
Upside:I got to drive it home Very nice car. I hope the drive home was good! Nice choice. Practical, reliable and fun. Don't worry about the mileage...I used to look after two airport taxis, one auto, one manual and apart from EGR valves and a flywheel failure on the auto at 200,000 miles they worked very well. Both were serviced every 4 months due to the mileage.
Each one had done 400,000 miles by the time they got rid. I had that almost exact same car for over 8 years and it was a great car and was very reliable with only one failure on the turbo actuator in the entire time I had it which was not an expensive fix either. Never had a problem with the DPF either although you may want to make sure you take it on a longer drive every now and then to clear the filter. My usual driving pattern was a 10 mile drive to work each way along a mix of motorway, A and B roads with a 30 mile drive somewhere at least once each month and that seemed to keep the DPF happy. So no need to do big mileage about you may cause yourself issues if you only did short 4 or 5 mile journeys all the time since the engine will barely get warm in that time. There is a good forum called Briskoda that is UK based and has a lot of advice etc. if you need it. That's very useful re: the DPF, thanks data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
