Hello, I’m a little desperate, the more I read, the more complicated it becomes, as every model has its quirks I will soon drive 120km over land and need a good reliable car for it. My requirements: – reliable – powerful engine, from 130hp – inexpensive maintenance at about 40000km/year – good chassis – Price <= 15,000 until now I have selected the following models (to make it not so complex I would stay with them): 1) Golf VI 2.0 TDI 140PS 2) Audi A3 sportback 2.0 TDI 140PS 3) BMW 320d touring 177PS 4) VW Passat Variant 1.4TSI EcoFuel 150PS I have created an Excel table for all the information I could find (purchase price, tax, insurance, consumption of spritmonitor.de, etc.) and calculated the annual costs. I have also taken into account the commuter fee. The 3 diesels don't give too much, the natural gas pass is in the cost but about 85% of the diesel models. However, there are no great repairs here. Unfortunately, one often reads of defects especially in connection with the natural gas drive. So the question arises to me whether a diesel would be cheaper overall... Who has experience and can help with advice and action? Thank you very much in advance!
