extra weight.....plus with Quattro the temptation to boot it is always thereEvery A4, A5 and A6 I’ve had has been about 45mpg. They’ve all been Quattro though and I know that takes a bit off
cheers for thatAvoid the Renault Kadjar. Ours eats oil, I have to stick a litre in a month minimum.
It’s been to the garage 4 tines about it and every time we are told that the oil top up periods are “within tolerance”.
Finance is up next year, we’ll be getting rid.

When I was with Nissan and they started with the Renault Alliance (Renault running gear etc.) we started getting this. Can’t believe it’s still a thing...Avoid the Renault Kadjar. Ours eats oil, I have to stick a litre in a month minimum.

I’ve been driving 17 years and never needed to change oil in a car between services until we got the Kadjar. Everyone thinks I’m talking shite when I talk about it.When I was with Nissan and they started with the Renault Alliance (Renault running gear etc.) we started getting this.

I know they say it’s in tolerance, and it is, it’s a disgrace.
I don’t know if any other vehicle where this happens.
Will be doing the same when my lease is up, but German estates offer fuck all value and you’re better off with a Mondeo estate in my opinion. And the Mazda 6 estates look value too.This might not help but mpg and space seem to be important to you. If that’s the case I’d sack off those two awful options and get a German estate which will be superior in every way. 14k would get you something nice.

ive had both as company cars over the years and the kia was a better car in my opinionAs title got 14k to spend
Ive got a top 2 of a quashqai n connecta or a kia sportage '3' I know I know ! 2 very vanilla suvs
which is the more economical ? can't go off offical figures as they are b#llshit
any good or bad experiences with either ?
Ive test driven both and both seemed to drive and handle well ,but the sportarge seems a bigger beast than the nissan back end height length so i'm expecting less mpg
16 plate so assume it’s the first model. TCE petrolWhat model is your car?

If I was to be tempted to buy German, the VW Passat seems to offer the best value.

I just pop to Sainsbury/Tesco every time the light come on. Occasionally I’ll buy a big one in Halfords but it’s the other end of town soDepends where you see the value tbh, it’s subjective. A nice spec e class 6 cylinder will be expensive but if you aren’t picky a standard 4cyl merc won’t be miles away from a nice spec Mondeo. I think the German cars age better too, can still look classy at 10 year old. Never had a mondeo but the journalists seem to think they are brilliant like, I don’t think you can go wrong there.
Look on the bright side, nice fresh oil in there all the time, it will run forever!
I’d buy cheap stuff if it’s burning a litre every 1k.
That was my other choice on pure load space and reliability. Went for the crv in the end cos a nice spec one turned up and it was a toss up between the two.As others have said, get a decent estate instead. I’ve had a Toyota Avensys for 8 years, nowt goes wrong, it carries loads, is very comfortable on a decent run and is economical (averaging just over 40mpg in a 1.8 litre petrol). Only gripe I have is the lack of power, needs reviving a bit to accelerate hard.
