Will I get a Mazda CX-3 or Mazda3 hatchback?
Thinking of purchase a new car. My heart (perhaps not my head) is tending towards a Mazda CX-3 or 3 hatchback. I have a budget of about €22k, as well as trade in of my 06 SEAT Leon. What's the best car for my money? Tend to be in car on my own as second car is MPV for family.

Should I replace by Qashqai with a Tucson?
Hi guys,
I see the Hyundai Tucson everywhere. Would it be a good replacement for my Nissan Qashqai next year? Hoping to get finance and use the Nissan as a deposit.
Thanks

Is it worth upgrading to a premium brand?
I would like some advice on changing from my Ford Mondeo to a higher price level car, say BMW 5 Series or Audi A6 or Mercedes. Is it worth all the extra cash? What will I feel that will be so much better?

I'd like a new car that is really comfortable.
Hi,
I have just been reading Neil Briscoe's article (June 2016) about Citroen's new suspension system. I take it Neil wasn't too impressed. I have a 2003 Citroen C5 that is a fantastically comfortable car. It will have to be replaced sometime unfortunately. Because I have spine injuries I would need something that is the equivalent in terms of a smooth ride.
What do you think the chances are of finding same?
Thanks
