I think everyone would agree the CRD is generally more reliable than the Di BUT they each have their own issues.

Totally understand the budget problem... if you go for a Di get the latest, lowest K one you can afford.

Good advice. I was going to get a GUII with loads of gear and 350,000km but looking more towards a max of 2500k and less or no extras.
Can always add the extras but you can't take off the km and I plan to keep it for 10 years at least.
