I'd like a classy five-seat commercial please...
Hey!
I'm in the market for a new executive commercial vehicle - but it needs to have five seats. Loophole a go go... The obvious choice is the Land Rover Discovery, but I understand they are being phased out and so my leasing company won't offer it as an option. Things like an L200 / Ranger / Hilux / Navara are a little TOO commercial for my tastes...
The Pajero Executive is nice, but the equipment, engine and layout all seem older than I am. The Touareg is a nice bus, but seems expensive compared to the rest and I've heard so-so reports in terms of value for money. Any ideas what else I should look for? Do Volvo / BMW / Audi do a five-seater that classes as commercial?

What warranty for on my Volkswagen CC?
Hi, I'm going over to buy a 2013 Volkswagen CC in England at the weekend. There's 66,000 miles on it. I'm looking at buying a private warranty for it that gives me some cover when it's back in Ireland. Would you be able to recommend a private warranty company? I'm getting mixed messages about Mapfre and Carprotect.ie.
Many thanks

How much would a 2007 Ford Mondeo be?
Hi,
How much would a 2007 Ford Mondeo be worth? It has 84,000 miles on the clock, an NCT until April 2017, heated windows, parking sensors, new flywheel fitted. I'm wanting to update a few years for tax reasons but went to few dealers and it was an insult for what they were offering. Really I think it's because I'm a woman on my own going to a garage, but one dealer told me to sell it private so I'm looking for some advice on the price.
Thanks

How to insure a car I am importing?
Hi,
I'm buying a car in the UK. I don't have a car at the moment. What is the cheapest way to insure myself for the one day for while driving it back to Ireland? I'm a named driver on my girlfriend's car but they are telling me that we can't transfer her policy.
