The 1.9 TDi is a little less fuel efficient, but known to last forever.
But with the higher fuel efficiency it should still be more cost efficient.
What I meant was, they don't exist here. I'm unaware of a TDI smaller than VW's 1.9 having been sold in the US. There are a couple of tractor diesels one could conceivably swap in that are smaller, however.
