It's not as big or imposing as the Q8 or Q7, but if it is quiet comfort that you're after, this Q8 e-tron is a wise choice. And its quite pleasant to drive as well.

The BMW 5 Series has a new exterior and comes with plenty of screens in the cabin. And its still has all the bits that make it fun to drive underneath.

As a recent purchaser of the brand new Nissan Note 2024, I collected it last week in March 2024. I am thoroughly disappointed with my experience. Despite the promises and hype surrounding this vehicle, the reality has been far from satisfactory. Let's start with the positives, albeit few. The car's power and responsiveness were passable, nothing extraordinary, but at least acceptable. However, that's where the compliments end. One of the major selling points touted by Nissan was the fuel efficiency of the Note. Advertised figures claimed an impressive 24.4 km/l, but the actual performance falls woefully short. In real-world conditions, with eco mode engaged and driving conservatively, I could barely manage 18 km/l on a good day. It seems the advertised figures were achieved under perfect laboratory conditions, far removed from the realities of everyday driving. Moreover, considering this is only the first month of ownership, I shudder to imagine how the fuel efficiency will degrade over time. If the car struggles to meet its claimed efficiency now, I fear it will only worsen with age. Moving on to the interior, the space was adequate, nothing more. The leather quality was decent, but hardly enough to salvage the overall disappointment of the vehicle. Now, onto the real issues. Within just one month of ownership, the vehicle started showing signs of trouble. Sensors began malfunctioning, and the dashboard resembled a Christmas tree with its array of warning lights illuminated. For a brand new car, this level of malfunction is simply unacceptable. As a new owner, I expected reliability and peace of mind, not constant trips to the dealership for repairs. The experience has left me frustrated and disillusioned with Nissan's claims of quality and reliability.
