What should I look out for when buying a 1999 Honda CR-V?

I'm looking to buy a Honda CR-V 1999 automatic with 135000 km from a private seller. What should I look out for? Any advice is appreciated.

What comfortable, seven-seater with lots of gadgets can you recommend me?

I love buttons, comfort and gizmos more than power and driving. I don't need 4 Wheel Drive but want seven seats. I hate depreciation so I don't need a new car. What do you suggest I get?

Will a 2015 Nissan Qashqai 1.6 dCi be suitable for muddy terrain and long commutes?

I want to trade in my 2011 diesel Nissan X-Trail 2.2 for a slightly smaller 4WD. I commute 50 miles a day, but need a 4WD for rough farm tracks. I have a budget of about £20,000 - £25,000 after trading...

Ford Mondeo (2007 - 2015)

Very good to drive. Refined and comfortable to travel in. Massively roomy cabin and huge boot. Reasonable value. Efficient ECOnetic and EcoBoost models.

Volvo XC90 (2002 - 2015)

Handsome-looking, safe seven-seater brimming with kit and practical touches in its high-quality cabin. D5 is the one to go for.
