Asked by Nigel Milan
We're very happy with our Kia Sorento diesel, but we're considering moving to a top of range Sportage next time we buy. Normally, we would just get another diesel, but having just got back from Europe where diesels are very much on the nose with some major cities considering banning them, I'm wondering whether we should reconsider petrol. What do you think?
Answered by CarsGuide
10 Mar 2017If the diesel has worked for you then I don't see any reason why you shouldn't buy another one. Do your sums on the cost of running a diesel versus a petrol engine and if that works out in favour of the diesel, and you haven't had any issues with the DPF then I would stick with what has been good for you.
