Moin, I’m looking for a new used car at the moment. Since I don’t want to be in the workshop all the time and I’m absolutely dependent on the car here in the country, reliability is a top priority for me. I’m aware that every car is in the workshop at some point, but I want to minimize the probability that I’m a permanent guest there by choosing a solid model as possible. So far I haven’t left a car with less than 250,000 km, so I’m looking for a solid cross-country skier, with which I can still drive for a few years. Furthermore, every free workshop should get along with the model well, so not too exotic. I drive about 28,000 km a year, mostly rural road and highway. I do not lay down on a certain class. Everything from small cars with 4m length should be ok, gladly bigger. Actually, a diesel would make sense from consumption, however, one often hears that modern diesel are quite susceptible to expensive repairs The budget is about 8000-9000 EUR. Which brands and models would you recommend to me?
