Is the 2007 Mercedes E-Class reliable?
What do you think of a 2007 Mercedes-Benz E 220 CDI? I know that the pre facelift W211 had a lot of electrical gremlins and the Sensotronic Brake Control was beyond a joke in terms of reliability, but this was dropped on the facelifted cars.
Is there anything else that I should look out for?

Thinking of buying a high-mileage Mondeo.
Thinking of purchasing an 09 Ford Mondeo diesel diesel with 184,000km on the clock. Should I be worried about the mileage? Is there a better saloon car that you would recommend for long distance driving?

Looking at a 2003-2009 Toyota Avensis.
Hi there, I was thinking of buying a 2009 Toyota Avensis diesel hatchback with 67k miles from the UK. It is the old 2003-2009 shape. Has satnav, don't see any reversing sensors, full Toyota service history. Are they a good car or would you say 2009 version is better?
Thanks,
Walter

Are more folding hard-top coupes on the way?
Hi,
Ford, Renault and Volkswagen all had four-seat hard top coupes, but they all seem to be gone now. Is this a function of product cycle or other factor? Are any of them likely to come back?
Cheers and thanks,
Philip
