Anyone bought a used tesla? 31 Dec 2023 (Forum)
I know there are more sensible options but I think the joy I'd get from the car is worth a bit of extra money and the risk of financial oblivion if the battery dies. My max budget would be £30k but I've seen older model 3's for less than 20. -
Skoda Kamiq - Can't decide between two cars 28 Dec 2023 (Forum)
They both have good reviews, but the main dealer with 18inch wheels has probably the best reviews I've seen from a main dealer. As I'm near the top of my budget, it's not ideal for me to look at another set of 17's. Any input would be helpful, as maybe I'm getting hung up on the details. -

Current process for Salvage car purchase? 31 Jan 2022 (Forum)
My friend has his heart set on purchasing a salvage car with light damage (I can’t recall if it’s a Cat N or cat S). The car in question does not have a log book, the company selling it told him to get a V62 and go to the post office where he can apply for the V5 and tax the car at the same time. Is this correct? -
What would you go for? 11 Feb 2021 (Forum)
I prefer the look of the Audi but the Focus has more extras and I imagine is more comfortable for commuting as the Audi has Sport suspension (although I think this isn’t as harsh as S Line suspension?) and 19” alloys. Are Audi massively more expensive for servicing and parts? Paul -

2012 VW GOLF 2.0 TDI BLUEMOTION MATCH HATCH - Cat N purchase turns out to be Cat A or B 21 Sep 2020 (Forum)
I applied for a new V5 but have been informed by DVLA that car is Cat A or B and must be scrapped , Ive had an engineer who does crash damage repairs look over the car and he cant see any reason for a Cat A or B or even Cat S , as there are no signs of any structural damage at all . Is there any way of getting this Category Changed , or finding out the previous owner as my friend thinks the insurance company may have wrote it off as Cat N but made a mistake in telling DVLA its Cat A or B. -

Buyers of new cars are so dull 19 Jan 2020 (Forum)
Many of us look for colours that are either practicle for our use, silver is ideal for my use, or a shade that is considered fashionable, not only to 'fit in' which is understandable because standing out from the right on consensus of the moment isn't advisable and anyway there's always resale to think of, so something fashionable but bland is a good bet. Personally i much preferred the 70's in many ways as well as colours, ok the cars weren't great but there were lots of really interesting colours, ranging from oranges through yellows and lime green to all shades of the spectrum, almost no one had white cars, and black was for govt/drug dealers/hoods, and as i recall our own fair maidens were a delight in those better days when people didn't take themselves quite so seriously. -

I'm looking at second hand cars in the price range of £1000-2000 and it looks like I will have to choose to either have a high mileage or older car.
