choosing new car

i have a choice bewteen an Opel Insignia Estate, BMW 320d Estate, a Skoda Superb Estate or a Volkswagen Passat Estate. All of these are diesel. What would you think is the best car?

Thanks for your help.

I have a 2000 Micra with only 40,000 miles, its our second car. We also have an 2004 VW Passat 2.0-litre Diesel. Would I do better in the Scrapage Scheme with the Micra or trading in the Passat. We would like something similar to the Passat  or even a little smaller.

Hello,

I would like to buy a BMW and have a choice between a 2008 X5 or 2011 5 Series. I need something with a big boot that is also reliable, as it will be family transport for five years. At the moment I have a Nissan XTrail and am worried about going back to driving a low seated car. Thats' why I am considering the X5 and also because I don't like the X3. Could you give me some advice please?

Hi lads,

My question is that I have a 2009 VW Passat BlueMotion Comfortline (110hp) and I want to upgrade soon. The car has full leather, Bluetooth kit and a tow bar. The current mileage is 50,000km. I took the 1.6 for a test drive and found it to be a bit underpowered and I had to change gears a lot. I also took the 2.0-litre for a test drive and found it to be a better car.

The 1.6 does 64mpg and the 2.0 does 61.5mpg so would I be better off to actually purchase the 2.0 as I can afford it? Also both cars fall into the same tax bracket (104 Euro for a year). I was offered very good money for my current passat. What is your opinion of the 1.6 - I use the Passat for transporting the family so I want a dependable car with low tax and something that looks good too! Would the 2.0 be a better option?

Any advice would be great.

Thanks

Hi,

I have a 2007 Toyota Auris Terra diesel that I am trading in. It has 87,000km on the clock and is in excellent condition. What it is worth? I was thinking of getting an Audi A3 Sportback 1.6 TDI S line or the Lexus CT 200h S Design. I found the suspension hard in the Lexus. Which would you recommend? 

I am interested in buying a small four-wheel drive for the occasional light trailer work. I do about 12,000 kilometres per year. What would you recommend please?

I am trying to decide what small car is best for me to buy. I currently own a 2007 Nissan Micra and I like the look of the new model. It has more rear passenger room and boot space as well as Bluetooth. I have also read a review stating that the Hyundai i10 is better overall. I think the i10 is bit small space wise and think the i20 would be better. However I heard Hyundais are not reliable. I disliked driving the new Opel Corsa. The Volkswagen Golf/Polo and Toyota Auris are also too expensive for me.

What do you recommend?

I need a new car for city driving and a weekly motorway trip. I'm trying to decide between the Mazda 2 sensu and the Skoda Fabia 1.2 TSI or have you any recommendation? My one requirement is air conditioning.

Hi,

Looking at a Toyota Corolla Diesel. But, is it worth the extra cash to go for Kia Sportage 1.7 diesel in the scrappage scheme?

Cheers

I have a 2000 Nissan Almera and 2003 Skoda Octiava. I want to use both against a new car. What are my best options?
