Is the Hyundai i30 a good replacement for my Skoda Fabia?
Hi
I had four Skoda Fabias in the last 16 years, never had any problems, but I am looking for a slighly bigger car. I like the Hyundai i30 and going to buy a year old next week. Is this a good move? I like the long warranty.

Is the Land Rover Discovery a good buy?
I am after a good 4x4 for work, the vehicle will see a lot of hill-climbing but not too much bad off-roading. I am looking at a 2008 Land Rover Discovery. I have to say it is like new, but for the mileage I will do (i.e. 500+ per week), do you think it'll be reliable? If not what would you recommend?
Regards

Is the Citroen C5 a good car?
I am interested in buying a Citroen C5. Are they a good car and are they heavy on diesel? Is there anything in particular that I should be aware of?

Would a BMW 520d suit me for low mileage?
Would the new shape 2010 BMW 520d with 100,000 miles on the clock be a bad buy? I do very small mileage.

Am I mad changing 2012 Golf for older BMW?
I'm driving a 2012 MK6 Volkswagen Golf Edition R (1.2 TSI). While I like a lot of things about the car I am increasingly frustrated by the significant understeer, lack of steering feel in general and the poor seats. I am thinking of changing to a BMW 3 Series M Sport (318d or 320d) around the 2009 or 2010 mark, using this as a trade in. I do very low mileage but I don't mind spending a bit more. Am I mad? I have a bit of a mental block changing from a 12 reg downwards.
