If this car will be for short trips only, then go with petrol because of warm-up time.
Modern turbodiesels are so complicated, plus PSA doesn't allow more than 30% biodiesel.
A petrol is probably better suited for killing the engine.
I think the reason the petrol gets almost as good mpg's is weight: a diesel engine is usually heavier then a gasser of the same size, and here the HDi is 40% larger.
