I want to change my petrol 2002 Golf with 85k on the clock. I was looking at getting a diesel as I'm driving 60km per day for work. My budget would be about €6,000. I'd prefer a medium size car like a Ford Focus or SEAT Ibiza - any tips?
Is this a good deal: 2005 BMW 2.5, 50,000 miles on clock, price €6k?
Is the Chevrolet Epica a good car?
Hello, I'm thinking of buying a 2011 Nissan Qashqai 1.5 diesel or 2011 Kia cee'd estate. What do you think?
Thank you
I have a choice of two cars, both Audi A6s. Both the same price-ish at €18,500 vs €19,000. One is a 2009 basic spec with 64,000km and a one-year warranty, the other is a 2010 S line model with 80,000km on the clock and a six-month warranty. I am not sure from a risk point of view what I should consider as the most important thing to look at.
Hi - with about €35,000 to spend on a second hand Porsche - which should I go for? 911, Cayman or Boxster?
I am driving a 2000 Volkswagen Golf petrol and I need to change to diesel. I have about €7,000 to spend; what would you recommend?
Hi, I need to get an automatic car for a price in the region of €10k. Preferably economical and reliable but not a Micra type car. I am looking at 2008/9 Prius, 2008/9 Golf, 2010 Kia cee'd and 2011 Renault Fluence. I am edging towards the Fluence but I am getting the usual "you can't trust Renault, stick to German or Japanese cars" type comments.
Any thoughts on the topic?
I am driving an 04 Opel Meriva and am looking for a second hand car replacement that would be similar to what I have. What do you recommend?
