Buying a car off the web
I bought a Citroen C3 Picasso Exclusive 1.4 Petrol 59 reg, which your review tempted me to buy.
It has 20,000 trouble free miles on the clock and has been very good. I am now thinking of trading it in for a Hyundai i30 which seems to have a lot of good reviews.
I was thinking of going the internet route, I know you like Drive the Deal but they dont do P/X, I see you have some New-Car-Discount.com deals in your column.
I asked for a quote from them - they said £3150 off RRP to £17,400 & £5,500 P/X.
What I would like to know is does the i30 have a chain cam engine and how do you rate New-Car-Discount?

Al current Hyundais and KIAs have chain cam engines. Of all the brokers I will only recommend Drive the Deal because of consistently good service and no problems. You could sell the C3 Picasso using www.sure-sell.info
