Petrol or diesel for an imported Volvo V40?
I am looking at buying a Volvo V40 import from UK, but want to know should I go for petrol or diesel as I only do between 12,000- and 15,000 miles a year. I love the V40 D2 but probably not practical with the low mileage I do and I think the V40 petrol only comes in a 2.0-litre. would it be economical or would I be better just going for a Ford Focus EcoBoost instead? I know they are complete worlds apart but I don't want to get the V40 petrol if it will be costly to run either.

What do you think of the 2012 Mitsubishi Lancer?
Hi, I'm thinking of buying a 2012 Mitsubishi Lancer. It's a 1.8 diesel with 150hp. Just wondering if there are any problems I should look out for with these? It has 67,000km on the clock and has a few extras such as rear spoiler, side skirts and front bumper corner extensions. Just wondering what should i expect to pay for this?
