Kia Sportage 2015: Diesel vs petrol

If I do a bit of short running around town would it be better to buy a diesel Kia Sportage or would petrol be best?

Generally petrol is better if your driving is short trips, diesels are much better when you drive longer distances and steady speeds are better than stop-start running.
