Swap a VW for Hyundai?

My wife and I have a 43-year-old single son who suffered a severe stroke two and a half years ago. This has left him with a weakness down his left side with restricted use of left leg and arm. He has been...

Butch craft

What I want is a car that looks like a Honda CR-V - chunky with high seating - but is not 4x4. Is there such a thing? Also, I hear on the radio today that Carcraft is offering a £2,000 scrappage deal against...

Mille miglia

We are retired and own two cars: a Jan 99 BMW 318iSE and a Feb 07 Jazz. We keep the BMW for three or four 1,000mile round trips to visit relatives down south. It has covered 70,000 miles and because of...

Enough puff?

At present we are looking at the Hyundai i30 as a good new buy. However I am not too sure if the 1.4 petrol engine would have sufficient power for long distance or Motorway driving. We took it for a test...

Part-vexed

I recently bought a Ford car, and decided to trade my wife's Hyundai Coupe in part exchange. I thought the dealer's offer for the Coupe seemed rather low. He insisted that, although the car was immaculate,...
