Mokka or Captur?

Stocks of the old model Ssangyong Korando like a budgie at the mo, having just been replaced, and you still get a 7 year warranty.

I used to have a Captur - 1.5 diesel. Very nice car. Smaller than it looks, although I did carry a full size dishwasher in it once.

I had diesel captur previously. No complaint.

By the way, what is your search criteria?
How about Japanese or Korean brand?

Thanks, but took a quick look and engine size 2.0 + litres - too big!!
Currently driving Citroen C3 1.4HDi - due to low mileage looking for a petrol engine vehicle a little bit bigger - the Ignis to me is too similar in size to the C3. When engine size goes up, so does RFT. I currently only pay £30 a change from the £180. I paid for my previous car the Rover 200 2.0 SD.

CO2, not engine size.

And for anything post-April 2017, it's a flat £140/yr, anyway.

Picked up my 'new' Mokka yesterday '65' plate 1.4T in Red. Looks distinctive, drove well on the test drive. manoeuvres well, parking sensor, CD, Satnav. Happy so far!!

Some reports of noisy cam chains on the Mokka....
the cam chain is at the wrong end of the engine so if it needs replacing it's needs the engine out to replace it !!

Both are inverse tardis cars. Big on the outside, tiny on the inside.

Personally I think that drivers whose confidence is so low that they need such a vehicle would be better serving the wider community by handing in their licences, rather than pootling around blocking the roads.

WOW - talk about judgemental, you don't know the first thing about me.
Interestingly enough, watching the Fugitive earlier in the week, Derbyshire Police picked up a Wanted man (probably about 15+ stone) on a European Arrest Warrant put him in the back of their Police car - a Vauxhall Mokka - wonder if they were low in confidence!!?
