Is it worth to get 2nd hand A180D

[sgmrbean]

Dear Seniors, I am new to Merc, and now plan to downgrade from SUV to A better mileage car. 

So i narrow down to A180 or A180D. 

A180 = Avg 500Km/Tank 

A180D = Avg 800Km/tank

Questions

1: Maintenance for both model, Diesel mode more ex by 10% in term of maintenance ?

2: Resale Value = which is better 

3: As i travel much more then normal, Diesel is more suitable for me, but i am worry abt maintenance and resale value, anyone can give some advice ?

4: A180D Rd tax is higher , $740 vs $1048 correct ?

 

please advice.
