The VEA is a great engine, I'm genuinely impressed with the power delivery and economy. My VED is only £20, but some are zero (my R-Design model has bigger wheels, which I believe tips the balance into the higher category). Advice on the older 5-cylinder engines would only apply to AWD vehicles. The post-2013 facelift models you appear to be seeking use the VEA engine on FWD versions.

Our VEA D3 R-Design’s VED is a rip-off at £30.

For everyday use I think you will find that there is very little difference between the D3 and the D4. We run a 2016 V60CC D3 and compared to our other car, a 2020 BMW 320D, it is similar in response and performance. Only at Motorway speeds above 150-160 km/hour is there a noticeable difference in performance.

I love my V60 D5, never had any DPF trouble in over 50000 miles of motoring.
I get nearer to 50 mpg most of the time, but mine is a manual. Also £30 a year tax.

I have a D3 s60 with automatic gearbox. It's a 6 speed one. The car is rapid but above 60 mph i miss some more power when you want to take over. I'm considering to give it a stage 2 tuning. I love the car. Drove audi A8, jag, BMW 7 series for work but this one is much better.
