Diesel Mégane, Focus or Citroen C4?
I have €9,000 to spend on a used car. What's the best out of these three diesels to buy? A Renault Mégane, Ford Focus or Citroen C4. Some Méganes seem to be six-speed so which would be more economical and reliable?

Why won't my Focus start after an engine change?
I currently own a Ford Focus C-Max - a 2005 model with a TDCi engine. Unfortunately I destroyed the engine when I drove i to water. I got a second hand one from a 2010 C-Max and took it to my mechanic to fit. The mechanic has swapped the new engine into it, but it won't start. He told me he has swapped everything possible from the old engine but it's doing nothing. Any advice would be gratefully received.

Should a 2010 Renault Mégane Estate diesel with 174,000 kilometres on the clock be avoided? It's an ex-company car and seems in good condition.
