I'm planning to get a used Santa Fe. Which should I get, the Diesel or Petrol?
I'm always bias towards Diesel but after reading autoworld forum, and understanding the grading of diesel, should I still get the diesel one in Malaysia?

Diesel one should be the first choice, I believe if it can sell in Malaysia market surely it already been tune to Euro 2 diesel, then again since it is a used unit better to look at the condition of the SUV first & check previous owner usage.

I'm very keen on Bimer turbo diesel. But our diesel quality and maintenance/repairs of this engine is sort of holding me back. Any feedback?
