Starting a new job in a couple of weeks so i'll be doing about 120 miles a day, which means the MG has to go and I need to get myself a diesel.
Hoping to get about 4 grand for the MG, then after ive paid off the finance i'll have about 2 grand to spend.
Whats best to go for? Was thinking about a pugeot 306 hdi, something like that?

306 is a good choice, anything VAG although you wont get much for 2k 
Look at an HDi, they are good engines

Need something cheap to insure, im taking a mega pay cut with this job so i need to get rid of finance and drastically lower my insurance and fuel costs.
Really really really dont want to get rid of the MG, but I dont have much choice

For real economy, 1.3DTi Corsa, or 1.7 for a bit more fun
