BMW X3 - BMW X3 3.0 MSport 2011 vs 2015 Honda CRV Dtec EX 19 Mar 2018 (Forum)
We have a budget of £18k and have the chance to buy a 7 yr old 45k mileage BMW X3 3.0 MSport diesel auto but have also seen a 15000 mileage Honda CRV DTEC diesel manual EX 2015 plate. We have had an 2006 Honda CRV for the last 8 years which we’ve been pleased with Both high spec cars but wonder if any advice on better buy? The BMW seems to hold value better but is obviously an older car. -

Ford Focus Estate - Ford Focus 1.6 2006 Instrument Cluster Fault 4 May 2016 (Forum)
I see Ford Focus instrument clusters come to us everyday, both Mk1 and Mk2's for various problems! Mk1 Ford Focus clocks are common for being completely dead or have dials dropping out. Mk2 Focus clocks have more issues such as the car failing to start or going into limp mode as well as the problem I had with warning lights flashing and dials dropping out. -

Hyundai i20 1.2 Petrol Classic 2012 - i20 Electric Power Steering - USB Audio Fault? 25 Aug 2016 (Forum)
I now guess that plugging in a USB memory stick to replay an audio book through the car's audio system somehow triggers this difference. I guess that this somehow affects the wheel speed sensors or computer(s). I guess that this stops the power steering from switching properly from slow-speed (max. assistance) to its high-speed (min. assistance) mode, and the brakes/ABS wrongly assume that a wheel is skidding, so can pull to one side or perhaps trigger the stability control? -

Jaguar XF (X250 last of the old shape) - Rear Differential Fluid Leak 2015 X250 Jaguar XF 21 Jul 2021 (Forum)
The car has a full Jaguar service history and has been serviced 3 times at the main dealer since this advisory. I was just wondering if there is a known problem with the rear differential on the 2015 XF? I understand that there was a problem with the 2009 XF but am I right in assuming this would have been resolved by 2015? I’d greatly appreciate any advice - I’d imagine that the Jaguar main dealer that supplied and serviced the car from new would have solved the problem (the car has now travelled another 20,000 miles since this MoT advisory 3 years ago) but as you can imagine, seeing this advisory on the car’s first MoT concerns me. -

Estate car recommendations 17 Mar 2022 (Forum)
We thought about getting something like a Galaxy or S-Max, and while I'm still keen, they are pretty expensive, and it's hard to find one with the level of trim I'd like. The MPV appeals too as it has the extra seats in the boot so we could fit Granny in there too if we needed to go somewhere without taking 2 cars. -

Ford Ka etc - Small city car - runabout/learner car 6 Aug 2025 (Forum)
Hopefully when he’s passed his test, he will take it on, so must be very low insurance group too. Budget is £3500 max. Location between Salisbury and Southampton. I’ve been trawling autotrader and looking mainly at Ford Ka models. I realise they are very similar to a Fiat 500 but I get the feeling he would think them too ‘girly’. -
