I am buying a pre owned bmw. This car takes diesel fuel. Am I at a disadvantage by using diesel for my car?

Well, being that it's a diesel engined car, diesel is the fuel of choice. The car will not like petrol, whatever your feelings.

Slight reduction in performance with D. MOT requires a smoke test that can damage a badly maintained engine. Much lower fuel costs (Clarkson did London Edinburgh and BACK on ONE tankful as a challenge). Slightly worse pollution if you take the soot particles into account. No limit on the quantity of D you can store at home if there are fuel protests again
