Should I change my Skoda Octavia for better economy?
Hi, I've a 2010 Skoda Octavia RS 2.0-litre diesel and thinking of changing to a 2011/2012 1.6 diesel Octavia. Just wondering is there much difference in terms of mpg or would I just be better off keeping the RS? I do about 45,000km per year mostly on motorway so reason for thinking of changing are the high fuel costs.

Is the Toyota Avensis as bomb proof as they say?
Hi lads,
Quick question: I'm looking for an ultra reliable car, as seem very unlucky with every car I get. Peugeot 407 at moment and all injectors to be replaced, latest drama. Looking closely at Toyota Avensis; are they as bomb proof as they say?
