From the things I've read on here it really seems look of the draw. Some ppls last 150k, where as others go at 20k.
I suppose good service history is a must and also a bonus would be if they have been replaced. I know a lot of members on here use additives which obviously keeps the injectors as healthy as can be, but again I think its down to luck.
I must say I have the 130 TDCI and although sometimes it does my head in with different little niggles it is by far the most economical, best drive and best looking car I've had, and to say I'm quite young I have a few cars.
I suppose with any car there is faults, but if there well maintained you shouldn't have much trouble.
Not usre if you know but there is a very good buying guide at the top of he diesel section forum which is worth a read.
I've done 20k+ in mine and only real issues I've had with it was the aux drive belt tensioner and also the flashing coil, but that was down to a cheapo fuel filter. Other than that it pulls like a train and gives a good 55mpg rural and town driving. All I do is use diesel additive and regular oil and filter changes.
HTH, happpy huntig
