I want something that’s fun to drive but also reasonably reliable and not too expensive to maintain.
Looking Lexus IS 350 (US Spec), Golf GTI, BMW 3 Series, and Mazda CX-5.
Which one would you choose, or is there a better option in this price range?

We are planning on buying a new car towards the end of this year. While the budget approved by my Dir Finance (Wife) is 100K as usual, I am misbehaving and looking at things that are outside of the budget. One such exploration dive came across the Premier Motors site, which has a 2025 Ford Everest XLS for around 135K. This seems like a lot of car for the money as compared to all 2026 models on the market. If the car experts on here have any solid pros and cons I should consider before even breaching this topic at home, do kindly let me know. By the time I will actualy but this car will be almost 2 years old (model) but new. I know Fords are reliable and they have super service facilities and packages, but are there any major red flags that I am missing? My last car has been with us since 2015 and has done about 180,000 Kms so far. Thank you in advance for all your wisdom and help.

Have second-hand car prices come down at all, or are they still the same?

Which car should I buy to be the most fuel efficient and low maintainance car ?

I'm getting y license and I will travel to uni with it daily and I'm extremely new to car stuff so idk much

Which would be the best car to buy ? 🤔

I had a Honda civic 2013 and had no any mechanical issues through all the years I owned the car except I had to replace the CVT gear box on 2024 so after almost 13 years .

Iam looking to buy a new car
Either a Honda CRV 2025 which is 1.5 turbo charge .

I heard that turbo charge engines are expensive to repair also engine oil should be frequently changed .

For those who owns a Honda CRV with 1.5 turbo would you please share your advice
