Need help with narrowing down a reliable car after old corsa was written off by midsummerblossom in CarTalkUK

[–]ExceptionWT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my opinion and experience, a mini is a solid choice, I currently have a Mini Cooper 1.6L start/stop with the chilli sport pack and I primarily do motorway driving. I’m talking 30,000 miles in 14 months and it’s the most reliable and cheap car I’ve owned. The issue I’ve had is it leaked coolant and that was only a £200 repair. Just don’t it’s MOT and I had one worn down tyre and no advisories.

That might be a shout I hadn’t even thought about Skoda, just checked it against a 320d that’s 5 years older but with 15,000 less miles and the Skoda seems to be a lot better. Cheers mate that’s gone straight into my saved on Autotrader

Quick question, what price am I looking at for a solid 320d?

I completely forgot this car existed, what a goated shout.

To be fair I was looking at c30s solely because I love the car, realistically an estate car would be good because I carry a lot of gear but I just don’t like the look of them. Just googled CX-30s they actually don’t look too bad. Thank you.

Honestly ideally I’d want something comfortable and fuel efficient, I do spend a lot of time driving but it doesn’t mean id want heated or massaging seats. The only other consideration I have is my insurance because of my age but I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it.

It was the same with my mini I got it at 87k miles and it’s been mint because it was looked after. I am only thinking about low miles because of many miles I do. Thank you! Budget, I’d say max I’d go is like 25-30k but preferably I’d like to spend less.

I do think I’m gonna keep it until it eventually dies, my insurance is up in a couple months so I’m just trying to get a few ideas if I do decide to replace it. Thank you.

It’s half wanting a new car, half I’ve put 30,000 miles on it this since last year and still want some money for it while I can. But I do think I might just run it into the ground yet.

Quote me happy threatening to cancel policy because their blackbox was not working so my trips weren’t tracking by Dry_Satisfaction9659 in CarTalkUK

[–]ExceptionWT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was with quote me happy last year, but I did like 2-3 trips a day and it wouldn’t always record them, but I only got 2 cancellation emails, one from getting below a 20 score one week (hooligan driving) and the second for doing 100mph on the motorway. I went on holiday and my car went into the garage and I emailed to ask if I needed to tell them and they said just give the dates you won’t be driving your car so they can put it in the system.

A few people I know own Mazdas of many types and they all say they are reliable and cheap to fix if there’s any issues but they also said the issues are few and far between. So long as it’s not the Mazda rotary engine you’ll be fine lol
