Which of these diesel cars should I import from the UK?
I plan on going to the UK to buy a car soon. Thinking of a 2010/2011 diesel, a Qashqai, Passat, Sportage or Octavia. If I got a Kia it would still have warranty. Any other make with warranty like this? Can you give me advice?

Will larger wheels make my new Golf less comfortable?
I am thinking of trading in my Golf Mark 6 Highline, which has 16-inch wheels, for the new mark 7 Highline, which has now standard 17-inch wheels. Worried it may not be as comfortable on back roads.
