Looking at getting a Ph2 1.5 dci

[YORKS1.8LS]

As per title, my other half is looking at trading in her '99 Clio 1.2 for a 1.5 dci to take advantage of the cheap road tax.

Have had a look on autotrader and found a few examples however I have only come across one that I like myself.

Are there any particular things to look out for with these engines etc?

I don't know much about them, but the gf has one, 2004 70k+ miles and it's never skipped a beat, she's had it almost 3 years.

good service history is the key with these diesels. just look out for warning lights poor cold start etc, on road test make sure it revs all the way up to 5,000rpm, do this in second gear.

cambelts and aux belt are 5 years 72k

my mrs one is on 120k, drives perfect
