New i30/ceed - diesels reliable?
You tend to advise against turbodiesels in general on reliability grounds on 3+ year timescales. However, in i30 and cee'd reviews you appear to recommend the diesel engine. Is this purely because of warranty, or are these less likely to go wrong?
Also, any opinions on 1.4 i30 petrol: too weak for motorway / hills?

Less likely to go wrong. The 1.4i is okay, but undergeared for the motorway.
Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.
