I like diesels but the one diesel I won’t buy is a Mazda 2.2d, cylinder head prone to warping, the intercooler prone to failure as well if you have a heavy right foot.

Finally one thing to take into account is this one requires B7 E5 diesel else it becomes prone to soot buildup and unlike most diesels Mazda diesels sold here has a DPF and when you have a DPF you must operate and drive it at least 1-2 hours at peak torque output so it can heat up enough to burn away the soot else hello clogged dpf.

Currently the best sub rm250k SUV that you can have with a diesel engine is a Hyundai Santa Fe.
