I currently have a Ford Galaxy and looking to get a new/nearly new seven-seater. Have you done a review on seven-seaters? What would you recommend?

Hi,

I am changing my taxi currently a Toyota Avensis 1.6 petrol, for a 2010 Renault Fluence 1.5 diesel. Are there any problems I should know about with the Renault?

Thanks

Hi,

Have you any info on pricing and specification of the facelifted Volkswagen Golf GTD hatchback and whether Volkswagen will follow Mercedes-Benz and reduce retail prices due to Brexit?

I am looking for an automatic Nissan Qashqai...

Can you tell me if owners of the F10 BMW 520d have had suspension problems? The rear spring has broken on my 2012 520d with 50,000 miles on the clock. No tow bar, pothole or apparent tyre damage. BMW fixed it but it is not a recall.

Any views?

Which size of tyre shall be replaced for 175/65 R14 if I go for 16-inch alloys?

I have a 2007 Kia cee'd petrol with 180,000km on the clock. Trying to work out the best time to replace it. Thinking of a diesel as I do over 15,000km per year. Thinking of the Rio.

Your advice much appreciated.

I am thinking of buying a car imported from the UK by a small SIMI garage. The garage will deal with all import paperwork and register the vehicle but I would be responsible for getting it through the NCT. Is there any reason to be cautious about this?

Has the 2008 Avensis 2.0 D-4D diesel a timing chain or timing belt and how would you rate its reliability overall? As reliable as the Toyota Corolla?

Is the 2007 Nissan Qashqai 1.5 dCi comparable in reliability to the 2007 Toyota Corolla 1.4 D-4D? I most likely will be buying one or the other in the near future (but also considering the Toyota Avensis 2.0 D-4D) and my heart is saying Qashqai, but my head is saying Corolla (I do 20,000 miles per year).

I would appreciate an independent viewpoint

Thanks - Cathal
