Keep in mind where you live or will keep your boat. For me Volvo parts are 100 meters from my boat. Cummins would be mail order. Although, I have required no parts outside of consumables for my engine.

I've driven a nearly 30 year old Toyota turbo diesel that was never imported to North America for the last 12 years. No parts required either.

Properly maintained and operated, diesels are reliable.
