Will my trade-in cover a new finance deposit?
I have a Chevrolet Aveo 1.4 car and I'm thinking of trading it in under a scrappage scheme. Will I have to make a deposit or does the trade-in value go as a deposit on the new car and what would the payments be back on €20,000 for the car?

Next-gen Nissan X-Trail or Skoda Kodiaq?
Hi guys,
Regarding the Nissan X-Trail and its new 2.0-litre diesel engine, will it be introduced into the current X-Trail series or are we going to see the updated X-Trail (as per US/Austrailia) hit Ireland in 2017 with an updated engine range? Really appreciate any comment you have, as I'm looking at something in the Skoda Kodiaq/X-Trail range.
