V5, = SHOCKING fuel economy. (Worse than the VR6) Slow/Underpowered,
Sound like they have one cylinder too little or one too many....
London and back took a tank and a half of petrol.... At £65 ish a tank.
Get a V6 4 Motion.

Mine may be sale soon ;)
Not long rolled onto 90k. I have had her for nearly 3 years and done 50k myself. Run with no expense spared and stock bar a Custom code remap, pipercross panel filter and a Forge divertor/recirc valve.
She is the K03s model also (AUM engine code) and did 39mpg on a recent trip to Devon ;)

Diesels are fine until they go wrong. Remembers in the price range you are looking they may have done high miles and not maintained 'as well' as the next.
Had a Leon Cupra TDI company car in my past. Went well with a Revo remap ;)

Put std wheels back on it (all with good/new tyres matching pairs)
