What will I replace by Peugeot 206 with?

Hello lads,

I currently drive a Peugeot 206 and in my 10 years of ownership the last six months have been plagued by problems. Can you recommend a good diesel car, max €3,000? I drive approx 100 miles a day for work.

Thank you, John in Wicklow

What should I replace my Toyota Verso with?

What should I replace my Toyota Verso with? I have a 2006 model with 130,000 kilometres on the clock. I no longer need a seven-seater and I want a car that can be used for both commuting (50km a day) and family (two kids). My budget is €6k on top of my existing car. What is your recommendation?

Thanks in advance, Rao

Hi lads,

Quick question: I'm looking for an ultra reliable car, as seem very unlucky with every car I get. Peugeot 407 at moment and all injectors to be replaced, latest drama. Looking closely at Toyota Avensis; are they as bomb proof as they say?
