reliability

Any known problems in the 2008 Honda CR-V?

Any problems with latest Opel Astra?

Hi,

I need some help with a decision please. I’m thinking of buying a 2.0-litre sDrive BMW X5. Probably a 171 model. I know there’s a new model coming very soon, but I don’t mind about that. I’m a little worried about the N47 engine that I think this car has. Should I be worried and is there anything else I should worry about?

Thanks.

Hi,

I am considering buying a 2008 Ford Mondeo 1.8 TDCi Zetec with 200,000km on the clock for €8,500. Just wondering are they generally a reliable car and are there any common issues to watch for?

Hi.

We have been looking for a good reliable quality practical family car and deciding to go with a Skoda Octavia 1.0 TSI, as petrol suits our mileage - very short during the week and longer drives on weekends. My question and only reservation about the three-cylinder 1.0 TSI Octavia is its durability. Skoda and Volkswagen have a good reputation, but my only concern is how many years can be got out of a small engine in a big car? Have you any background into the work the manufacturers have put into this technology. and how durable do you reckon they will be? I've only heard great things about it, but I've heard a few non-Skoda drivers dismiss this engine.

Thanks

Hi,

I am thinking of buying a 2011 Lexus CT 200h with 180,000km on the clock. It would be my first hybrid vehicle. What should worry me before buying? Would I need to change anything?

Have you heard of any problems for the 2008 Opel Zafira diesel? And also what miles to the gallon does it give?

Also looking at Ford Focus 1.6 diesel - any problems with that?

Thanks for all your help

Which 2008 diesel car is best value and gives least trouble: Ford Mondeo 1.8 diesel or Toyota Avensis 2.0?

Hi!

I'm planning to buy a Honda Civic Hybrid (2007-2008) 1.3-litre CVT from the UK with average mileage and full service history. Are there any problems with this particular model and what should I look for?

Thank you

I am looking at a 2008 Peugeot 307 HDi 1.6 Sport with 70k miles on the clock; anything I should look out for? Any problems with this model?
