Mazda6 or BMW 320d?

Mazda6 2.2D or BMW 320d? Which of the two will be better as a fun-to-drive second hand 2010/2011 hatchback/saloon? The Mazda6 is cheaper to buy but would it be also cheaper to maintain and be more reliable? Would the BMW keep a higher residual value? Anything I should look out when going for a test drive?

Which small car suits our €10,000 budget?

We need a small family run around. We have between €5,000 and €10,000 to spend. My eldest daughter will be turning 17 soon and will be learning to drive, so this will be a factor as well. It will be 90% city driving.

What should I look for on the Honda FR-V?

Hi, I am looking at a second-hand Honda FR-V (2009/2010). Is there anything in particular to watch out for? Are you familiar with the particular hand-brake lever in this car? I found it difficult to engage on my test drive and was wondering if that was just me.

Thanks, Eddie
