@Smergen another things to think about which I just remembered is service intervals, some are 10,000k's, some are 15,000k's and many do fixed price servicing. I know with diesels its always good to have low k's between services but it adds up, and you wonder what they do sometimes!

My Navara gets a full service every 10,000 and I just do an oil change at the 5,000 mark. It has over 160,000 on it now and hasn't missed a beat. I know it doesn't have DPF on it :hail: so no limp mode experience. They were only fitted to auto models with the 2.5 L motor.
