SEAT Leon, Skoda Octavia or Volkswagen Golf?
Which car is the best secondhand buy: SEAT Leon, Skoda Octavia or Volkswagen Golf? I just changed jobs and need a new car. I'll be doing 25-30,000km a year so I'm only really looking at diesels in the 2005-2008 bracket. Which of the cars is best value for money in fuel efficency, cheapest repairs, car longevity etc. Any tips on what I should look out for when buying or any other cars you would suggest?

Is my Nissan Micra's head gasket gone?
I have a 2003 Nissan Micra 1.2 and I am forever putting coolant in it. The person I bought it off said it was the radiator and replaced it but, I have since taken it to another person for them to tell me it's the head gasket and will cost me the price of a new engine if that is the case. I have no water oil mixing just the temp light coming on so I add coolant.
Any help appreciated

Are parts for Saabs becoming expensive?
I'm thinking of buying a 2007 Saab 9-3 Linear Sport, 1.9 diesel. It's in good condition and seems to be a very good price, but I'm told parts for Saabs are becoming ridiculously expensive and that's why you can purchase them so cheaply. Can you shed any light on this?

Is my old Renault Laguna worth anything?
Hi, looks like my 2002 Renault Laguna has called it a day... engine blown. It was a great car while it lasted. My question is what value has it now with a blown engine?

Thinking of buying a 2007 Peugeot 407. Full service history and Cartell.ie report available, 48k miles on the clock. NCT to May 2017. Cost is €3,900. This seems low. Am I missing something and why are used Peugeots cheaper than other cars of same year?
