Petrol or diesel car for 10,000km?

Hi I live in city & I drive 10000km a year so which I need get petrol or diesel car? Thanks

Our answer:

Hi Daragh,

Most definitely petrol – with that kind of mileage and it all being in town, you’d clog the exhaust filter of a diesel engine in no time and give yourself loads of unnecessary bills. Go petrol, or even consider a hybrid or plugin hybrid depending on your budget.
