On the big internet I stepped on this very interesting forum and hope that I can find helpful tips here. Some things I have already found, but need even more information. I am a horse owner and ride/train intensively and also often ride on tournament. Since we live in Switzerland, the terrain is very ‘hilly’ after all. Size problem is probably the stable, which stands at 800 ml. Say I drive at least 2 times the mountain up and down again every day. 3-4 times a week with trailer, We had a Kia Sorento, built in 2005. He has provided us with great services for many years, but since we changed the stable, he probably came to the limit with the ‘mountain’. We also ride flat as soon as we are ‘below’. Defakto fell down the drive shaft last week, at 219’000 km. A lot of it with trailers. I noticed recently that the Kia was very stinky when I drove up there with the trailer. Now he’s not driving anymore and we’re looking for the vehicle that can withstand it and doesn’t give up the spirit after a few rides. Our Kia Sorento had an automatic gearbox, diesel and more I don’t know by heart 😮 I’ve read from some posts that a ‘real’ offroad vehicle is better suited when driving a lot on the mountain. Just what is a real offroad vehicle? I thank you for many helpful ideas – own I wanted a Kia again, I love this driving feeling. But obviously that wouldn’t be the best choice.

Mazda or Opel? Ask for quick help!
Hi, my girlfriend is looking for a new used one. We have a maximum budget of 1500€. Today we were at a dealer. He offered us an Opel Corsa bj2001 75ps with 140,000km. Furthermore he would have a Mazda 323c bj98 with 180.000km. I don’t know about cars. I would have taken the Opel. Because I find 180.000km a bit violent. But the dealer said that the motor of the Mazda would be very good and he would give us even 2 years warranty on the Mazda. Now know As can be seen from the budget, the new used person should continue to be economical in maintenance in the future. What would we be better advised with? Many thanks in advance for quick help.

Overview of the Autopapste of Germany: Is there such a thing here?
Hello, I’m looking for a new car and my spectrum is – once again – VERY wide. I loved both a Prius and a Phaeton. In the latter, Zottel – the Phaeton Autopapst – was recommended several times, whose workshop is unfortunately 550 km away from Berlin, which my Phaeton breweries finally buried. With my V70 CNG I was already in the Vlotho with the nationwide natural gas specialist and now I ask myself – this time BEFORE the purchase of the next In the beautiful large Berlin and surrounding area, there are not even one or the other car pope (or at least an auto bishop), so you could significantly reduce the wide range of my candidates. Which car popes do you know?

Replacement for 15-20t€ and just under 10t km/a
Hello dear community, the following situation: – dual student – weekly 6 days by train to the next larger city – journey to the station is 10km – current car: Opel Astra G with 150,000km and almost broken exhaust –> Tuv due in May – fuel consumption is 9 liters, mostly more 10l – Fridays is driven by car and Saturdays back –> 140km – nothing saved – duration of study: until mid 2019, after that already bound the next 2 years with the company – number e currently 600€ Insurance per year My question is this: 1. Is a loan paid by paying only the interest annually and, if you start working, the rest of it? 2. Would my insurance be cheaper in the year if I had a new car? 3. What do you think of it overall? Too high-risk because of your studies? 4. Which car would you suggest to me? Should it work towards Ford Fiesta ST, Seat Leon FR etc. I would like to thank you in advance! Greetings

Purchase advice for current cars with driving fun potential
Hello together, Here is a guide for current cars with driving fun potential with good price-performance ratio to click through; I would like to expand it and hope for your help https://docs.google.com/…/viewform At the moment it is still quite one-sided (but I’m not sure if it can really be expanded soo much, but let me teach you). If you have alternatives in the respective classes with similarly good price-performance ratio, I like to build them. I am also aware that some people will be sad because some German models are not mentioned; this is because, for example, there is simply a mature Ford Fiesta ST, which costs ~10% less than a VW Polo GTI. Price is just a factor^^ If there is something that sets the polo off from the Fiesta significantly, especially in terms of driving fun, I’ll also leave it here. Enlighten

Search combo or if necessary SUV up to max. 40,000 Euro
Hello, because of early offspring I have been in desperate search for a station wagon or SUV for a few months. Important to me is a large trunk, which should also take a stroller and suitcase at the same time. I am not actually a friend of SUVs, but I need a vehicle, which does not set up like my previous convertible on rough paths and underground garage entrances, since several times a year field and forest paths have to be passed. brid (also PHEV) my first choice, Diesel is out. My driving profile is about 70% short distance and 30% motorway. Here I also like to drive a little faster, if I am on my own, which greatly worsens the energy efficiency of most hybrid vehicles, if they allow at all a speed beyond the 180km/h. My budget is at a maximum of 40,000 euros, the less the better. Equipment that I would like to have: LED spotlights, distance tempomat, Andr oid car or at least mirrorlink, a good sound system, panoramic roof (because of the possibly missing convertible), ISOFIX, trailer coupling, all-wheel, 360° camera Would also be a virtual cockpit, like in the Peugeot 3008/5008 or at VW/Audi – and calls me stupid, but I love LED turn signals (which are often not installed in an incomprehensible way).So far on my list (Hybrid): Passat GTE, Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, Outlander PHEV On the burner side: VW Tiguan 2, C-Class T-Model l, Peugeot 3008/5008, Renault Talisman, Opel Insignia II, Passat (Alltrack), Audi A4 (Allroad)

Simple Cheap Carefree Car, is the Ford Fiesta an option?
Hello, a friend of mine wants to get a car after a very long abstinence again. He really only needs it to get from A to B. He not only has special demands that it should be robust and as cheap as possible in the maintenance. And it should also be very compact. I have at least convinced him that he should not get a really small nut pin but something with full 4 seats + trunk. His budget is 3500 euros. niger. I was looking for and came across this Fiesta. Is this what? So this generation of Fiestas in general? I know more about the cars from the 80’s 70’s and even older at Ford.

Search Average family combi around 20k€ for long hold
Hello! Since our children are out of the roughest, I would like to change in a few months from the van to a normal station wagon. Actually wanted to buy a new car and drive it until it falls apart. Now I am on the one hand a bit baff, which such an average combi with hardly any equipment costs. E.g. Golf Variant with brachial 85hp + more beautiful color than that SULO grey = over 20k€; Astra Caravan on a similar level. Basically I would be the basic equipment without superfluous shnicks Chnack and any Asis stuff grab, however there are a few things I would like to have and/or no longer want to miss: Automatic climate control cruise control DAB radio 4 el. window lifter Like a German factory. As motorization a gasoline engine at about 8000km p.a.. However, 85/100hp are a little too thin. For everyday life in the city and at work certainly enough, but on the highway this should not be fun. Also does not want to motorize the at 130-140km/h more or weni With the Opel Astra there seems to be the most conclusive offer at first glance, but I am more into square cars, because the golf is a little bit more. There is still the Ford Focus, but somehow the spark doesn’t want to skip. What would you recommend? Thanks!

Ford Kuga 2.0 TDCI or Mazda CX5 2.2 Diesel ? Durability and reliability ?
Hello together, as described above, I can not decide between the Ford Kuga and the Mazda CX5. I am looking for a used car where the car should not be older than 4 years. For me it’s mainly about which ( according to experience ) the more reliable engine has. I know that you can also have bad luck or luck with both cars, but maybe there are people here who own one of these two vehicles and could tell about how reliable or little it is reliable the car ? It MUST be a diesel because I drive about 30,000 km or more a year ( 30% city 50% highway and 20% highway ). I also like the torque of a diesel 😉 Every now and then the car has to pull a trailer 1.0 tons. And it should be an all-wheel with manual transmission. I rarely drive terrain and then only light terrain ( sometimes a gravel road or so ) About your experiences I would be very happy and would you see r grateful Lg Giusi
