Hi is the 2008 Toyota Corolla 1.4 petrol a good car? It's a Terra model with 103,000km on the clock and is selling for €8,950. Does this price sound ok? It has alloys (Borbet) added. I test drove the car and while it wasnt the most exciting drive it felt better than some other 1.2-litre cars I drove. Is it fuel efficient compared to say a Ford Fiesta?

Thanks

I'm thinking of buying a 2001 BMW 3 Series (E46) SE Touring 136hp. Any problems to look out for on this and roughly what price should I pay? It's diesel with 157,000 miles on the clock.

Hi, I need a new car. I live in a rural area and drive to Dublin for work. I average 300km for work with approximately an additional 150km for leisure. I had a four-wheel drive Suzuki Jimny, but don't really need another off-roader (if weather/roads that bad I won't be driving). I want something sturdy and dependable - nothing fancy, maybe a second hand hatchback - would a diesel engine be a good option? Have a max of €7k to spend. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I'm looking for a car that will fit three child seats across the back seat. Is there one or is a people carrier the only option?

Im looking to buy an Opel Insignia; however I have instead found a low milage Vauxhall Insignia SRi model. Can you tell me the difference between Opel and Vauxhall, if any? Also the SRi model, can you tell at what level this lies compared to the other models and what extras come with this? I'm especially interested in the Bluetooth options and if you can connect your iPhone to play music through the stereo.

Thanks

I am considering buying a 2008 Mercedes-Benz S 320 CDI long wheelbase with 100,000 miles on the clock; what kind of trouble am I buying?

I am a disabled driver and I bought a 1.6 Nissan Juke auto and I am due to change next June; my question is what would you recommend? It must have ample boot space for mobility scooter or wheelchair and the seating position must be high up. Hand controls on steering column must be possible. I had a Citroen Picasso five-seater, which was ideal and fitted all criteria, but I would like to change to something different.

I am looking at a 2006 Volkswagen Passat Estate, 1.9 diesel; do they give any trouble mechanically and how do I know if the flywheel needs attention?

Is the mileage too high on this car? It is an imported 2012 (registered 21/5/12) 2.0 136hp Ford Mondeo Zetec hatchback with nearly 53,000 kilometres on the clock. Is it worth considering?

Can you advise me on a car that's easy to get in and out of? Presently driving a Skoda Octavia. How about something like a Peugeot 208?
