Performance car for dogs...

[ispcarsurvey]

2 seats - Mini GP, Z3M coupe or R26.R

More seats and lots of practicality - C55/C63 amg estate, RS6/RS4 etc.

Also saw someone that used foam to create a flat area in the back of a 911. Looked pretty comfy :-)

I've got a 9-5 Aero Wagon for my dog transporter! Very comfy and rather fast for an old smoker... It does embarrass quite a lot of so called fast cars! The dogs love it too as the boot space is huge. Cost me a bag of sand.

Saw this thread and all it made me think was "What is Katie Price driving these days..."

[Who me ?]

Minky -. But seriously ,I've got a little terrier, short legs , so I wouldn't expect her to reach the pedals and see out.

Lotus Evora?




That was in a 2+2 but the 2+0 would actually work quite well as the loadspace is flat and quite nicely box shaped!

And he looks so happy about it!

E61 M5 Touring plus sturdy boot cage for mutley. The dogs can yelp along to the wonderful sound of a V10..

Z4 coupe / Z4m coupe. Decent boot with a hatchback and a bulkhead high enough to stop them jumping through but low enough to see the dogs and give them lots of space.

Thanks guys - all useful and interesting suggestions...

My westie had loads of room in the back of the c5 vette coupe (not vert or Z06) but there was a risk of deafness.

Did hear of a guy who had to trade in his RS6 after a doggie walking session in local park. Daddy, egged on by PH kids, gave it a bit of a thrashing on the way home. Forgot woof woof in the rear. Dog permanently traumatised by the journey, used to quiver and tremble when faced with any subsequent car journey.

Once saw two hounds being transported in the back of one of these. it was funny as they were leaning into the corners like a biker would but looked quite happy.

This would be my choice!

Huge boot with the back seats down. Would be big enough for them two dogs with the seats up and the parcel shelf removed in fact. Id buy a "hatchback" cage:

Try one, they are an absolute hoot

Yes, used to be. Moved over to Chippenham about a year ago now as I'm working at Abbey Wood. I see you're Army too - which course were you on if you don't mind me asking?

ICSC2! That was a while ago..

You have two tiny dogs!? they will fit in the boot of just about any car with a hatch!

[Xtriple129]

You'll all think I'm mad/dangerous/deluded/deranged and I'll get flamed to death for this, but I have two dogs: Chester who is a Basset(ish) and Phoebe who is a black lab. They both fit and are very happy being trundled about in my MX5!

Chester sits on the floor only occasionally standing up to see where we are and if it's getting close to our walkies spot and Pheebs sits on the passenger seat.

I wanted the car, so I bought it trading in a perfectly servicable and practical car to do so. Yes, I am mad....

No help at all, but gives an excuse to post this classic video -

Going to bang the Alpina drum here again! The doggies know it makes sense :

That's Chris's car, and very nice it is too.

To be honest I think the boot on the Z3M might be more usable for small dogs though, it's a better shape for a start...
