What used diesel family car will I go for?
Trying to figure out what used diesel family car would be most reliable? Passat, Mondeo or Superb? I'm leaning towards a Mondeo Estate. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Our answer:
Hi John,
The Mondeo is a solid thing alright, but we reckon that the Passat would be slightly more rugged and the Superb would be more so again. If reliability is what you need, then the Skoda is the one to go for.
