I spent a few years working for Hyundai in the North West, and the number of Diesel Tucsons sold over Petrols was considerable.

Part of my job was to do a full pre-delivery inspection and test drive every sold vehicle before handover, and I much preferred driving the diesel models between dealerships (and this was without having to pay for the fuel).

Keep and eye out for a good condition CRTD CDX or a newer CRDi Style or Premium (I'm not as familiar with the newer ones TBH) and you're laughing. I'd get one myself, but our dog has bad hips and would never make it into the back any more

If a Tucson is the price range you're looking at, also consider a Kia Sportage, very similar in a lot of respects as they are both owned by the same parent company.
