Value of my 2004 Volvo XC90 AWD?
Hi, what's the market value of a 2004 Volvo XC90 2.5T AWD (petrol)? The car is in good overall condition with all the bells and whistles. It's a seven-seater with 160,000km on it. What could I look to get from the dealer in terms of trade-in value (presuming some dealer wants a huge petrol in their stock)?

Mazda6 diesel or petrol Megane?
I am looking at buying a used car. I travel up and down to Drogheda from Dublin each day for work. Would a 2.0-litre diesel be more efficient than a 1.6 petrol? They are both 2007, diesel is a Mazda6 and the 1.6 is a Megane.
