  • Nissan Juke 2015 - Heads up for Nissan Juke owners 2 Oct 2017 (Forum)
    Bit of a heads up to others regarding air con pipe routing that may affect some Nissan Jukes, 2015 onwards. My Juke was 22 months old when I noticed aircon not working efficiently, so being mechanically adept, had a cursory look and discovered two air con pipes - close to the screenwash filler - had been chaffing, probably since new.

  • Peugeot 508 2.0 HDI vs Skoda Superb Estate 22 Aug 2013 (Forum)
    I need a big comfy fast estate car, not even looked at Mazda 6 ( they have no dealers as far as I can find ) Would like a BMW 5 series but as its a company car they set a max price of 28 Grand. and max co2 of 130. 3 series & A4 are just too small. X1 might be OK - not looked at it yet. Insignia and Mondeo also possibilities, but neither really excite me, same for Passat Estate "SPORT" Don't want Avensis even though I had 2 already, just want a change.
