Which seven-seat crossover to go for?

Looking for a seven-seaters. Crossovers, maybe? Not Ford S-Max or Galaxy or MPVs. More Hyundai Sante Fe, Nissan Qashqai+2, Mitsubishi Outlander, etc. Any recommendations? Shame the 2008 crossover is compact and not seven seats like I need.

Which hatch keeps its value best?

I have an 1.8 petrol 2007 Mercedes E-Class with low mileage, but my need for a big car has changed and I require something that will not depreciate as quick and will cost less to maintain and run. Thinking of a Volkswagen Golf or Opel Astra .

Latest exhaust tech in Skoda's 1.6 TDI?

Hi,

Does the relatively new 1.6 110hp diesel engine in the Skoda Octavia have the new manifold in head technology that's meant to make real world emissions lower and make the EGR valve more durable or do you have to have the 1.6 diesel 120hp engine up, say in the Volkswagen Passat, to have this more modern technology?

I'm not really interested in the 2.0-litre diesels as I'm still a relatively young male driver and I believe you pay too much of an insurance penalty for this engine size.

Thanks

Kieran, Thomastown.

Which of these two Toyota Prius to buy?

Which Prius should I buy? I got two Toyota Prius offers recently. First one is 2005 with 67k miles for €6,000. Second is 2008 with 120k miles for €7,500. The 05 Prius has been looked after better than the 08 one. I am thinking go for the 08 one, but worry about the high mileage.

Could you offer me some advice please?
