If you aren't happy with the payout don't accept it.

I currently have both sitting on the drive...  picked up a 300tdi this morning from discotdi!  Sadly not staying with me for long, I bought it on behalf of a relative.

You need to drive both really.  I'm very happy with my TD5 - and I know plenty of people who have good things to say about them - but the 300tdi is a nice truck as well.  There's quite a difference in size, comfort, ride and handling.  The appeal of the 300tdi is that it is a nice simple vehicle, compared to the far more complex TD5.  But the TD5 is quieter, more comfortable, handles better and has more creature comforts.  I'm glad I have a TD5, but I'd be happy to keep the 300tdi if I didn't have the choice.

Speaking from my experience from working at a dealer stay with a 300 tdi as if you know how a spanner works you can fix it yourself
on the other hand there are some very cheap td5's out there my dad was offed a v reg manual with leather and air con t&t for £750 the other week as that's all one of his customers was offred trade in
