I'd say no.

Given the higher price of diesel, it'd take ages to pay back the difference in cost of buying them.

I'd say yes, definately petrol.

You're only doing about 10000 miles a year and for the cars you're looking at it'd take something like 2 or 3 years to pay off the difference in buying them.
