I need a diesel car for big mileages...
Hey guys,
Iwant to change to a diesel estate car, but am not sure which type to get. I do drive a lot and need a car that is very fuel efficient with low mileage and low maintaining costs. Cars within my budget are either 2006 Ford Focus 1.8, Opel Astra 1.3/1.7 CDTi or Skoda Octavia 1.4 (with Volkswagen diesel engine) or Skoda Octavia 1.9. Which of these are the most fuel efficient/most efficient cars to maintain?
Thank you so much for your help and advice!
Best wishes, Cindy

Toyota Corolla or Volkswagen Golf?
2010 Toyota Corolla Luna 1.4 petrol (€11,950 / 67,000 miles) or 2009 Volkswagen Golf VI 1.4 petrol (€12,500 / 36,000 miles)? Which one is a better choice? Any opinions? I can't find any on Corolla as it seems most of reviews are done in UK and this particular model is not being sold on their market, and the American version is a completely different car...

Should I replace my Merc with a Golf or Astra?
I have a 2007 1.8 petrol Mercedes-Benz E-Class with low mileage and my need for a big car has changed and I require something that will not depreciate as quick and will cost less to maintain and run. I'm thinking of a Golf or Astra. What do you think?
