Is it worth it?

The 2.0 TD is pretty powerless, the X20XEV is not a bad engine.

For running costs LPG may be a better idea

The seller only wants £200 for the diesel as it failed on rust and he is the original owner.it's only done 52k and compared to a LPG convetion at around £1800-£2000 thought it may be cheaper to do.
