Should I worry about a car having six owners?
Could there be a reason why a Nissan Almera 1.5 SX five-door (2005 with 60,000 miles on the counter) had six owners? It is selling at €3,950 and I'm concerned there might be a fault in it.

Which of these MPVs will give the best economy?
Hi, I asked you a question before, I was planning to buy a Nissan Qashqai, and just double checked the mpg with you. I'm so glad I did, just over 40mpg is a little low for my budget. So now I am looking at the following cars, and am hoping you could give me an idea again of the economy I can expect to get:
Citroen C4 Picasso 2007 1.6 HDi
Citroen Xsara Picasso 2008 1.6 HDi
Ford C-Max 2008 1.6 diesel
Renault Scenic 2008 1.5 diesel
Thanks in advance!

Could I have damaged my engine by leaving oil cap off?
I recently topped the oil in my car; however I got distracted and did not replace the cap! I drove approx 150 miles before realising my error. I topped up the oil and the car seems to be driving fine. Am I likely to have caused any long term damage to the engine?

Should I swap my Golf for a Toyota Aygo or Auris?
I'm driving a 2004 Volkswagen Golf Comfortline 1.4 petrol. I want to either get a new smaller car (e.g. Toyota Aygo petrol 1.0-litre) or a diesel Auris (e.g. 2008). Which would be cheaper to run as everything has got more expensive and my journeys not as long and frequent, plus I travel alone mostly. Which would be cheaper to run?
