Would an Opel Zafira suit our family?
Is the 2003 Opel Zafria any good as a family car? The one we're looking at has 160,000 kilometres on the clock.

Is this Hyundai Santa Fe good value or not?
I'm thinking of buying a 2006 Hyundai Santa Fe 1.9 diesel from a main dealer. It will be serviced, with new tyres and a new NCT. It drives well and looks clean enough inside but it has 230,000 kilometres on it, which seems a bit high, and with a trade in of my 2001 Volkswagen Passat Estate the dealer is looking for €6,800. Good value?

I have serious electrical problems with my Fiat Stilo!
My Fiat Stilo keeps displaying warnings that I have bulb failures when I don't. All fittings etc. checked by an electrical engineer. Also when I only put on front wiper rear comes on and sometimes when I put my electric window up it goes down! Help

What fun car will I replace my Honda Civic with?
I have an 08 2.2 Honda Civic and want to change soon. Budget is €17/18k including trade-in value. Any ideas on what to get? Have seen 2010 Citroen DS3 with extras (nav, leather, etc.) for €17k. Like that it's not the norm e.g. Focus or Golf. Would it be a good buy?

Is a diesel Nissan Qashqai a good replacement for our Golf?
Hi we are looking at a Nissan Qashqai 1.5 Visia dCi diesel. I have never had a diesel car and have had very trustworthy Golfs to date. We are not car people but want a change that is not going to break the bank. My main concern is the diesel issue as we are Dublin based.
