Should my wife trade in her Passat for a diesel version?
Should my wife trade in her 2008 Volkswagen Passat 1.4 TSI petrol for a more economical diesel car? My wife loves her Highline Passat, with 130,000km on the clock, but is wondering should she get something newer with similar spec (she's fond of the heated leather seats!). She uses it for work all around the county and also school runs etc for two young kids. What do you recommend?
Thanks

What will I get for my Ford Fiesta?
Hi, I have a 2003 Ford Fiesta (1.3 petrol) and I am thinking of selling it as I will be on the road more so looking for a diesel. The clutch, brake pads and discs have all been done in the last two months and there is only 75,000 miles on the clock. Any ideas on what I may get for it?

I have a 2014 Audi A6. There is a satnav screen built i to the car that should open and close upon starting and switching the engine off, but it only goes down sometimes. Is there a fault or is there something I am doing wrong?
