Skoda Kodiaq or Toyota RAV4 for reliability?
Hi,
Currently driving a 212 Citroen C5 Aircross and looking to change to a 2023 or 2024 car. Have narrowed the search to the Toyota RAV4 or Skoda Kodiaq. Long term reliability over the next five years is important.
Which would you recommend please?

Can I import my company's Range Rover VRT free?
Hi
I'm permanently based in Cork but have a company in the UK for which I travel back and forth regularly for work. I have a vehicle over there, a 2017 Range Rover. Can I bring this back to Ireland after owning it for longer than six months in the UK and avoid VRT etc?

Should I change to a four-cylinder VW Golf?
Hi,
Should I change my 2024 VW Golf (three-cylinder 1.0-litre mild-hybrid) next year for a new 1.5-litre four-cylinder Golf or perhaps a 1.8 Toyota Corolla?
I want a car to keep indefinitely. I love my current Golf and would be happy to hold onto it but I have doubts about the long-term reliability of a three-cylinder 1.0-litre engine.
What do you think? Our annual milage is about 17,000km mainly town driving with a few mixed road journeys of 40-80km weekly plus the odd few longer road trips annually.
Thanks.
