Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Hi everyone , need a few pre buying questions answered, and to cash in in yer experience in relation to a 1.6cdi pro ceed

    1. I see a lot of concern about fuel consumption on the Forums , I drive very poor roads , what should i be getting in MPG

    2 I love the car , but when i drove the car last week , i found the suspension very hard , I instant noticed this as i have being driving a Toyota Avensis 2006 Diesel and noticed that the ceed really shacked on bad roads when hitting pot holes , while the Avensis was way more comfortable

    3 My huge concern , is the punishment of the back country roads will cause the car a lot of issues ,Should I stick with a bigger car ?

    Thanks everyone for any help ye can offer as I really am on the fence on this one

    I'm driving a petrol one as a renter at the moment: -

    - I hate it. I'd much rather a Focus which is normall what I get lumbered with

    - There's no feedback whatsoever from the brakes. On or Off. Nor from the steering.

    - Easy to stall. Maybe that's why is starts itself.

    - Tinny rattles from the dash after 4k miles

    - Lots of engine noise over 60 mph

    - Dash is awful with low quality display

    - uncomfortable seats

    Otherwise, a fair bit of room for a small car. Nice gear change. The hatchback that I have looks fairly decent. Nippy enough.

    I wouldn't.
