I wanna 4x4 :D

I've been looking at replacing my car and come to the decision I'd like to look into 4x4's New only.

Has anyone seen good deals ? Low deposit and APR rate on finance?

Models I like so far are Fiat Sedici, BMW X5 (one can dream), Nissan Quashquai, Kia Sportage and Honda CRV (Prefer the model released just before the new 07)

Any help's appreciated :D

    Hello kegan5

    I'll move your thread to the 'Motoring & Public Transport' board.

    Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies.

    Woah there, did you say finance, I hope you weren't referring to dealer finance :naughty:

    Article: New Car Buying and Financing Cost Cutting Plan
    Article: Cheap Loans: How to get your lowest possible rate

    Look at Section 2 of the Motoring A-Z for some sites with guides to buying a car and reviews. If you know of other sites which are missing, post on the thread to suggest them :D

    The CRV is the best on your list but you MUST test drive a Lexus Rx300, the new version can be had from about 15k but the original model is an absolute steal at the moment, 12-13k will get a really nice example. Look to Lexus dealers for the best examples, the service and standard of the car will be excellent and it will make all the rest look agricultural.

  • The Honda CRV should be at the top of your list for a test drive. You could also consider a Nissan X-Trail, Hyundai Sante Fe & a Kia Sorento.

    eah honda is a very nice car, I had a look at the hyundai yesterday... very impressed :)

    I'm getting my car valued today, and then it's the hunt for a loan with good interest rate... hyundai sales man said it's roughly 12% APR which is high so hopefully I'll be able to find a lower rate

    K :D
