OK, so I've started a new job and now potentially doing 600 miles a week so naturally I'm thinking of getting an oil burner.
What should I look for when viewing D5's? Are they any good?
Cheers

Had my V70 163 a month or two now and can't fault it tbh.
Not really up on the problems apart from the usual DMF, DIM etc.
Taking it easy (ish ) I'm getting 300 mile to £40 @ £1.409 though, which is a lot better than the 120-130 I was getting from the R

T5 on lpg is at least the same economy as D5 and lots more power,with a good set up should give 27-30mpg on the run using lpg at cost of 65-72ppl.
