How do you fully disable traction control on a 2011 Chrysler 300?

I'm interested in a new Dacia Duster, but petrol not diesel. Dacia Ireland doesn't offer the petrol model, so I'm contemplating a new UK petrol Duster imported by me. I'm aware of the import process, but are there any likely problems? I'm especially thinking about insurance issues if it's a model not routinely sold in Ireland and also the VRT valuation process for a model not usually available here.

Any thoughts, please?

How much to tax a 2008 Land Rover Freelander 2.2 4x4?

Hi, I am looking for valuation for my 2011 (revised in 2011) Honda Accord Executive 2.2 D-TEC with 187,000km on the clock, a full Honda service history and in excellent condition. I tried usual car valuation websites, but with imports on market, it looks like they are priced high. Looking for trade in value and private sale value.

Any idea?

Thanks

Need help. Trying to decide between 2018 Ford Mondeo or Audi A4... or wait for the next Audi A6... or rob a bank for a BMW 520d. What do you think?

BMW performance related question: if I install the performance enhancement offered by BMW, which increases 2.0-litre engine output from 184hp to 197hp, does this invalidate my insurance? If I inform the insurance provider of the changes it may increase the premium or not provide cover if the car does not conform to homologation, etc. Thoughts?

Any information about the next-generation Toyota Corolla?

Is the new Leon SC three-door longer/bigger thsn the Volkswagen Golf or Audi A3?

I have a 2005 Saab 95 (2.0t) petrol automatic with about 136,000km on the clock. It just failed the NCT on emissions with "smoke". It is apparently a problem with the turbo (burning oil) and between that and a few other more routine issues it looks like about €1,200 to sort. The car seems to be running well otherwise, but I'm worried that there might be other issues around the corner.

That's the background - my question is, should I hold onto it and get it fixed or... bite the bullet and go for a change?
