I posted earlier about a surfeit of 4x4s in my locality. Now another neighbour tells me he is chopping in his Golf for a 2006 Rav XT4 2.2 diesel. He drives it a mile, literally, to and from the shops so I just hope he doesn't suffer any DPF problems, although on one of this age it may not have a DPF! The dealer tells him that 'on a run' he can get 45mpg. With his short trips it could well be nearer 30. The neighbour opposite changes her Rav4 diesel every 3 years, is currently on a 60plate, rates them highly and is currently on her third so that is a good recommendation I suppose.
