Jul 24, 2015 at 14:08 | comment | added | Steve Matthews | Yes but his problem is that he doesn't know what car to buy because he doesn't know where to start. I've addressed the problem he has, not the question he thinks he should ask. Typically vehicle related questions are not what they appear to be. For example, someone might ask why their engine management light is on. Simply telling them that this means a fault code is logged doesn't help them. Working out the proximate cause actually addresses this problem quickly. It's similar to the old hot air balloon outside a Microsoft office building joke. | |

Jul 24, 2015 at 14:03 | comment | added | Steve Matthews | My answer is intended to give the OP a framework by which he can decide what car to buy. I don't see how this fails to answer this question. | |
