Looking for my next 'cheap' car as a replacement for my 1.4 2001 Polo.

To remove air filter you must remove the brake flued top up,container not compleatly but just the bolts holding it on, then the seal from one side to other, the thing that it's bolted to actually pulls forwards and out then you can access the air filter box easy. Make sure you put all seals back as they were other wise you could end up with water on fuse box like previous scenic and water getting in to car via glove box. Job reverse job done : ) Read more

HJ suggested the Honda CR-V, when wanting to change up an earlier Honda the CR-V and latest Civic were tried and rejected as in both there was no headroom and even when test driving the latest Mazda 3 I was touching the roof, I am 6ft 1in which is not excessive these days.... Read more

We had one of the last Mazda 2 Capella's which we bought new in August 2007 (registered in Sept so 57 plate)., and kept it until April 2012 - when we bought a new i20 which was roomier, better equipped, and had a more practical shaped boot opening (ie less intrusion by the rear lights) than the replacement 2 (2007-2015).
The European version was built by Ford at the Fiesta/Fusion plant in Valencia Spain, and mechanically is the same as it's Ford sisters - engines, running gear, etc....
