  • Toyota Corolla and Verso diesel; nissan almera - corolla diesel 2.0 D-4D vs. almera diesel 2.2dci 6 May 2010 (Forum)
     I am currently considering either the Corolla hatchback 2.0 D-4D or the  Nissan Almera 2.2 Dci.  The main consideration with the car would be reliability. Please could you provide your opinions on which car could be more reliable? Also does anyone know whether either of these cars have a Dual Mass Flywheel? I know that the almera has a cam chain while the corolla has a cam belt.I  don't mind having to change a cam belt if in all other respects the Corolla would be more reliable.
  • colt/c1/argo/107 - mitsubishi colt vs toyota aygo/c1/107 11 Apr 2016 (Forum)
    As above, need to buy a new smaller car and not to sure on the colt vs the argo faimly, does any one have any experiences with these? From what i can tell the argo family from the car reliablity index has electrical and cooling and heating issues, but i have also read the clutch needs a bigger one and the brake discs go more frequently, these are easy fixes for the home mechanic. The colt on the other hand looks like the electrical,fuel system and suspension and axle seems to be quite high on repairs?

    If Concrete's thread about models' reliability refers to a certain 'Index of Reliability', then I went and had a quick (refresh) look. Some of it IS a bit odd though - I mean, I wouldn't have thought there were vast numbers of Chevy Kalos and Tacumas running about - maybe their owners don't make claims because they hardly ever use their cars?
  • MPV - for 'a grand'? 14 Jan 2010 (Forum)
    (Nissan Note would hit the mark...but far out of price range....) Scenics...read everywhere how 'bad' they are for reliability/fire risk etc. But still like them. Nissan Tino...1.8s and high tax so seem costly...also reliability issues. Picassa...reliability issues, and probably too expensive? Merivas? Zafiras? Mazda Premacy?

    Is it best to replace both sensors? Would be grateful for any reliable information/best procedure. Mikey
  • Toyota Corolla, Honda Accord, Totyota Avensis - Corrolla, Avensis or Accord? 1 Feb 2013 (Forum)
    I'm looking to replace my Zafira B with a more reliable and economical motor for between 3 - 4k.  After plenty of research both on here and on Reliabilty Index, I've pretty much narrowed down to either a Corolla, an Avensis or an Accord with the Mazda 6 as possibly a wild card.
