This is what Graham Smith liked most about this particular version of the Volkswagen Jetta: Plenty of luggage space., Comfortable, spacious cabin., Base petrol engine a good all-rounder.
The 2010 Volkswagen Jetta carries a braked towing capacity of up to 1400 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.
Both will give you good fuel savings in the sort of driving you're doing. The hybrid would likely be better in stop-start driving, the diesel better for open-road motoring. The diesel would be cheaper to buy and have a better resale value in the medium term. People are still sceptical about the life of the batteries in the hybrid -- though there is no evidence to suggest they are a problem -- but it has a negative effect on used values. You would also be tied to a Toyota dealer for servicing. The broader trade has yet to develop the expertise to look after the complex electrics of the hybrid.
