Does this sound like a good deal? The car was an ex-demo and looks to be in perfect condition inside and out.

I'm reasonably happy with the deal on that car, but my real dilemma is whether I shouldn't be going for the 2.2 diesel

My friend has the 2.2 in Sport trim, and I've driven it many times. It just seems as though you have to pay a lot more to get the diesel, and I'm telling myself that if money were no object I'd buy the 2.2 and not the 1.8.

Any opinions to add to my confusion are welcome!
Without a test drive in each (preferably the same day) you'll probably never know, no matter what we might tell you. My money would rather be for the diesel, but I'm not going to be driving your car
