Is the Nissan Twice is Nice Deal a good one?
Would it be a good idea to change my 2011 Nissan Qashqai 2011 for the Twice is Nice Deal? With the VAT increase and new diesel engine, is it still a good deal? Thanks.

Is the BMW 520d as reliable as Honda's Accord?
Hello I want to change my car next year for a 2012 diesel and have narrowed the choice down to a BMW 520d or a Honda Accord 2.2-litre. I would love to go with the BMW but am a bit worried about owning it after the three-year warranty is over. I know the Honda is rock solid but I have had three Hondas in a row and would love a change. Could you give me some advice please?

Is the BMW 520d EfficientDynamics just like the regular model?
Hello, I would like to know if the BMW 520d EfficientDynamics is much different to drive than the regular 520d please. I prefer manual transmission and 17-inch wheels are fine but I have read that they are different to drive and would like to know your advice thanks.

Is it mad to buy a new car in October?
Hi lads,
Am I mad to be considering buying new in October? I got a very good price on a new Volkswagen Golf Edition R, saving just over €1,000 than if I waited until the New Year. I've shopped around and this is the lowest cost to change I've got. Most important thing to me is the lowest price for the car and I'll be keeping it for a good few years so depreciation is not too much of a concern. This offer has tempted me but I'm in two minds. Buy now or wait?

What small automatic to replace my Volvo S40?
We are trying to sell our Volvo S40 1.8 flex fuel purchased in 2009 and road tax paid until May 2012. It is good as new with only 37,000km on the clock and we are trying to get an automatic small car instead. How much do you think is a fair garage offer as it's a hassle to sell privately, and what's a good small automatic car?

Which 2011 car to keep for 4-5 years?
Hi guys,
I have it down to two cars; both are 2011 fleet return cars with about 10,000km on them. A VW Passat 1.6D Comfortline or a Toyota Avensis 2.0D Aura/Strata. I hope to keep this car for four to five years. Your advice would be much appreciated.
