Petrol or diesel for a new car?
Hi if going for a new car should I be looking at diesel or petrol ?
Our answer:
Hi Anthony,
In general, if you do more than 20,000km per annum, go for diesel; if you do less than 20,000km per annum, an efficient, turbocharged, downsized petrol engine should be more than sufficient.
