Should I get a MINI to replace my Golf?
I'm on the hunt for a new car. Have been driving a Volkswagen Golf GT TDI 1.8-litre for the last five years and unfortunately was involved in a car accident and it has been written off.
I'm now looking for a car that will hold its value well, my budget is absolutely max of €8,000, looking for a slightly smaller engine as want to keep the road tax to a minimum (road tax on the Golf was a whopping €190 per quarter!) and I commute from Rush to Citywest so also looking for something that is good on fuel consumption. I'm currently looking at MINIs, Golfs and Ford Mondeos and other Fords. I think I'm particularly interested in purchasing a MINI as they seem to get very good reviews.
Any advice? Thanks

I need a six-seat car with room for a wheelchair...
I'm looking to upgrade my car. I need something to hold six people comfortably and to be fuel efficient, as I do 25,000km a year. I also need it to have boot space with all seats up as I need to fit hoist and collapsible wheelchair... I won't be carrying six all the time but need it to suit and be safe... All suggestions welcome.
