Is the Dacia Sandero worth looking at?

Could you tell me if a Dacia Sandero is a good car... or should I stick with a Skoda Yeti? I'm looking at an ad on DoneDeal.ie

Thanks

Any pointers on the Nissan Tiida?

My budget for a car is €6k approx and the Nissan Tiida (2008 or 2009) 1.6 four-door manual petrol seems good value for money. I would do low mileage per year, mostly city/urban driving.

Any pointers?

Does this 141 Audi A3 Saloon sound ok?

I am seeing a 141 (2014 Apr) Audi A3 Saloon 2.0 TDI 150hp, SE with Milano leather, a good spec car overall and has done only 10,000km so far. The price being quoted is €25,000. I am actually worried because the price quoted is low for its value. What could the seller be hiding? Any suggestions to help not to get cheated? Seller is a dealer (not SIMI) and has no problems me getting a Audi showroom health check.
