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.

Family car - mondeo vs avensis

cluelessx2 · 2015-03-15 19:30:17

Hi, Torn between mondeo & avensis 2.0 diesel. Looking for a car big enough to take buggy and car seat etc., and still have room for luggage/shopping. I have 140km round trip commute every day. Both cars seem to tick boxes for me, so wondering from car knowledge perspective, which would be a better buy. Thanks.

I assume that was the 2.2 dcat and not the 2.0 d4d?
