Passat GTE or BMW 330e suitable for me?

I do about 12,000km a year in and around Dublin, using the M50 a bit. Would a hybrid like the Passat GTE or BMW 330e suit me or should I go for diesel? Buying a new car in the new year!

Next-gen Nissan X-Trail or Skoda Kodiaq?

Hi guys,

Regarding the Nissan X-Trail and its new 2.0-litre diesel engine, will it be introduced into the current X-Trail series or are we going to see the updated X-Trail (as per US/Austrailia) hit Ireland in 2017 with an updated engine range? Really appreciate any comment you have, as I'm looking at something in the Skoda Kodiaq/X-Trail range.

Hyundai Santa Fe or Kia Sorento - new?

I want to get a new seven-seat SUV in January, but am undecided between the Hyundai Sante Fe Executive and the Kia Sorento Platinum. Which is a better? Also, would the Sante Fe hold its value better if I wanted to change again in three years?

Thanks

Any good three-door SUVs around?

I currently have a 2007 Suzuki Vitara three-door, which I'm planning on replacing in the next year or so. I love the three-door SUVs, but Suzuki/Toyota don't make them anymore, or at least not for this market. Do they make them for other markets and would it be a big deal to bring one to this country? or do I just need to get over it and find something else to love?!

Ford Mondeo, Skoda Superb or Kia Optima?

Hi,

Looking to change car for 2017. Looking at Ford Mondeo Titanium+ five-door 1.5 TDCi diesel, a Skoda Superb +Business Pack 1.6 TDI or a Kia Optima SW (estate) EX 1.7D. I would like something very comfortable and practical (hence the Kia estate, which, to my eyes, does not look like a hearse! - but no other estates need apply), but also something that is very reliable - so something with a long warranty that I don't end up using because reliability issues is not what I'm looking for.

I do 25,000km per year, all 'extra urban' and I'm not a badge snob. Currently drive a Honda CR-V, but would like to go back to a D-segment car again. All the above are well specified as such - of the three what would be your opinion? Great web site!

Many thanks,

John
