Need a boot - but, which one?

[Vintageseekers]

Hey PH's.

Apart from sports cars which we all love, we mostly need a family hack - for me, Having a newborn son, a dog and all the nonsense that goes with them. My current X3 can't cope. Boot is useless. Can anybody tell me what to get that's still fun(ish) to drive and actually has room in it? budget is definitely second hand. Landrover D3 are still too much, and at 2.7t too heavy.

Can't bring myself to buy a Volvo..

I ski in the winter, Mountain bike and camping in the summer (hello sailor - not that sort of camping you understand?)

Need space, please advice

Legacy springs to mind

[AlexKP]

How much do you want to spend?

(And this will get moved to the GG shortly I am sure...)

[snowy slopes]

Yep a legacy is a good bet, or an audi a6 of some sort






Should have said an a6 avant D'oh!

Thanks - Thinking 10-12k as it will only get kicked to death.

ALLROAD crossed my mind?

[VPower]

Saab Aero?

[bluetone]

The A6 4.2 Quattro Avant is great for this

[Dominic H]

Easy, this should suit your needs and driving style...



Or, if you're serious try this....



Cheers!

A friend just bought a Tourag - don't know about fun, but it is very nicely put together and finished.

For a little over 12k you could possibly get an early Porsche Cayenne. They are good to drive.

Haha - I've told you before - I'm not buying your cars off you! they've never been over 2000 revs or out of sauf London!

[sadoksevoli]

Octavia VRS or Scout (if you an find a Scout in you budget)

I just don't care that I am not fashionable....

By X3 do you mean the little BMW thing, or am I barking up the wrong tree?

Your right.the little BMW thing, although it does have a 3.0 petrol engine though (it's saving grace)

M5 touring, probably not budget freindly but damned fine cars.

Failing that, it's got to be an RS6

And you can't fit all the family junk in the back of it?

I thought they made them for familys ?
