choosing new car

Hi,

Could I ask you to compare the Audi S3 Cabriolet with the Mercedes-Benz C-Class Cabriolet for about the same money? Both are quality cars. The Mercedes possibly more polished and stylish. The Audi has four-wheel drive, is faster and smaller.

Thank you, Philip

Has Volkswagen Ireland stopped importing the GTI Performance? I have been told by Volkswagen that production for the performance model is ceasing (but it still seems to be available to order in other markets). Wondering if this is a temporary measure to help shift the glut of R models available for sale?

Many thanks

When did the Ford Mustang go on sale in Ireland? And how much does it cost?

Hi,

How does the RRP of new cars work? When I look at the Honda.ie website it says RRP for a new CR-V ES at €34,895. When I went to the dealer the price they gave is €36,945.

Can you explain this?

Thanks

1) Which is the most comfortable car on Irish roads considering seating, seat height, and road bumps (mainly interested in medium/large cars)?

2) Have you any reports on the Toyota Prius?

Do you know the price of new Skoda Kodiaq?

Which is the better car, the new Opel Insignia SE or the 2017 Ford Mondeo? We are considering changing our 2007 Opel and both of us are in our 60s so need a good comfortable car that will last us and trouble free. Budget maximum €32,000.

What is the best seven-seat SUV with a 2.0-litre diesel engine?

Which would be a better car: BMW 520d, Volvo V70 or Mercedes-Benz E 220?

We are a retired couple, 70 and 68 living in Tralee Co. Kerry and in need of a new car.

Our 16-year-old Toyota Corolla is coming to the end of its trouble free life; the choice of a Toyota was decreed by circumstance, we bought it new, found it a bit 'light' and would like a 'heavier' car with firm and comfortable seating. Can you recommend something?

Please do not recommend a new Volkswagen; to buy one we would need to buy it from the sole Volkswagen dealer in Kerry and after our terrible experience with this dealer we would never, ever buy a car from that dealer again.

Our budget would be about €18,000/20,000, non diesel as we do not do enough driving to justify a diesel car. Can you recommend models of cars we should consider?

With thanks and good wishes

Yours sincerely
