Should I buy a diesel Hyundai Tucson?

I was thinking of buying a 2023 Hyundai Tucson 1.6 diesel, but I have been warned from many people to avoid it as there are too many faults with them. Is this true and if so, can you suggest something like the Tucson that might be a better fit?

Do I pay VAT and customs duty on a 2018 Peugeot from the North?

If I were to import a 2018 Peugeot 308 from Northern Ireland, would I have to pay VAT and/or customs duty? Have looked at several websites but can't get a clear picture. Any help greatly appreciated.

Can I change a car's screen for a smaller one?

I don't like screens like large tablets stuck on the dashboard; I like a minimalist look, such as that of the Mazda3 hatchback, though I've had five different examples of the Ford Focus over my 'long life'! If I go for a 2021 or 2022 car can I get the relatively small screen changed to an even smaller one?

I need a bigger boot for a budget of €20,000...

Hi,

I recently had a change of job, so I need a vehicle with more boot space. I currently drive a 182 Ford Focus. I do over 20,000km a year. I was wondering what vehicle, be it an estate or MPV/SUV you would recommend I look at for a budget of around €20,000?

Thanks
