New XC 60
Thinking of purchasing one of the XC60's. I do a lot of short journeys. Can someone advise which they consider to be the best engine for me to purchase? Some say that a diesel would not be right, but others say it would be fine. Many thanks.

If you do lots of short trips the concerns from that affect gas or diesel. Diesels traditionally are slower to warm up but modern diesels have technology that changes that.
Buy whichever you like and be sure the oil service interval followed reflects your short trip usage.

Diesels, more so in Europe, are as efficient, as quiet and as fast as any gasoline powered vehicle, with an excellent consumption.
