What will I replace my Nissan Micra with?
I intend changing my car in the next two or three months. Currently I have a Nissan Micra, but I would like to buy a more solid and comfortable car this time. I do about 5,500 miles a year. I would be interested to know what make of car you would suggest and whether a diesel car is worth considering.
Thank you.

Much difference between BMW 318i and 320i?
Hi,
I have €15-17k and want to buy a BMW, either 318 or 320. Is there much of a difference between the two? Or has either had more problems? Hoping to get a 2009.

My VW Transporter is vibrating...
Good day,
I am referring to a question sent in by Ken Maher (Ballyger, Co.Galway) on 16 March 2014. He asked about a 2004 VW Transporter that had a vibration at about 2,000rpm when under power/load. I am experiencing the exact same problem with my 2007 Transporter T5. Was there ever a reason other than the CV joints?
