Hi, my car needs two new front tyres (Ford Focus). I have two very good tyres that I could put on it but they are slightly different. The tyres on the car are 195/50 R15 and the tyres I have are 195/55 R15. Is it possible to put them on the car?

Regards

Hello. I want to buy a 2009 Volkswagen Golf 2.0-litre diesel, but my question please is how does it compare with the fuel efficency of a 1.6-litre diesel Golf? Which is more fuel efficent? I don't do huge driving, just 60-80 kilometres a trip. Please help!

Thank you.

Hi, I bought a 2009 Opel Insignia four months ago. The place where I bought it from promised it had a full service done. A few weeks ago I noticed that every time I used the brakes there was a grinding sound. Also the code 'no 82' came up on the dashboard. Apparently this means that the engine oil needs to be changed.

Over the four months the car has not been used a lot. My question is if the place did a full service, would these problems still occur? The guy who I bought the car from was very dismissive and agreed to do the brakes. But he wouldn't even find out what the code 82 meant - I had to do that myself.

Thanks

What do you think of Audi A1? I've a 2002 BMW 316i that costs me a lot on parts and labour and petrol and am thinking of buying a 2011-2012 Audi A1, as I want a smaller car, preferably diesel, that doesn't cost too much to run.

I'm looking to spend up to €8,000 on car. I'm torn between the Audi A4 TDI S line (2005 and up), E90 BMW 320d (2005 and up) and the E46 BMW 320Cd (2004 -2006). Wondering what the pros and cons of all three cars are and which would be the best choice. Or would those models in petrol be better again?

My 22-year-old daughter is buying her first car with a budget of €3,000. Is this a sufficient budget? We are looking at the usual websites but most cars have high mileage. Should we be overly concerned with high mileage?
