Yeap vw is good too. I drove a 2002ish Audi a4 tdi while in France recently for about a month. My first diesel experience and I was surprised to say the least.
Was getting 800-1000ks a tank, power was good enough.
As for parts, the mother and law has a 4x4 scenic, a quarter window got smashed and there was a 6 week wait. Dealers fault but still it was a while. But that model is relatively rare, if you go something common then you should have no worries.
A previous model focus diesel would be a safe option, then you would only have diesel specific stuff to worry about even then it should be ok.
