What family car to buy?

Hi there.

I am looking for some advice regarding cars that fit three children's car seats in one row across the back. I would like to get a seven-seater, but for ease of use would like to be able to put all the children in one row. Isofix is preferable. I rather SUV-like cars, but obviously my budget might restrict me to a people carrier as I know these are more economical. Can you help? I love the look of the Kia Sorento, but don't know if this fits the three seats in the back.

Thank you!!!

My Audi A6 was rear-ended. Help...

Repair or replace?! I was rear ended in my Audi A6 and it needs a new bumper as quoted by an Audi dealer. Insurance company that is dealing with the claim has made the judgement that a repair will do, but I want a new bumper. What can I do?

What'll I buy as my first car, for €10,000?

Hi folks,

I'll be buying my first car in a few weeks. Ideally I'd like to find something under €10,000. Just something reliable to get me to and from work, preferably in a low tax band and will keep insurance costs as low as possible (22-year old male). Any advice?

Also, if I'm paying in cash can I expect to get a discount on the asking price in a dealership? If so, roughly what percentage could I hope for?

Thanks in advance, Rob
