Big reliable 5k diesel?
Discussion
Peugeot 607 2.2HDi?
I had one a few years ago as a Private Hire car (taxi) - great car, within the 50000 miles (from 40-90k) I put on it all it needed was one set of brake pads all round and routine servicing.
Mine was auto too - averaged 36mpg during work (Glasgow so all stop/start) - upto 50 odds on a run
Great interior and boot space too, mine was gadget laden too Nav, Xenons, Leather, Phone, blah blah

come onnnn, think of his kids!!!!!
Eh, there's more room in the back for them than in an S-Class (or are you sneering at the Skoda badge, notice you don't list what you drive).Superb/A6/Passat - somthing with that VAG 1.9tdi engine, my old man gets 45-50mpg out of his Superb combined, great car for the money.
They're very reliable so any that have been minicabbed are likely to have been driven until they've been to the moon and back twice and are falling to pieces (otherwise why would they get rid?), should be an easy spot

one in pic is the 100ps in base trim .... comfort trim & 1.9 tdi 130 probably a slightly better bet ... like idea of the 2.5v6 tdi myself ... would have a smug grin every time I spotted an audi a6 ... have to add: always loved black interiors & the way they gather warmthGassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff




But it is.... not the most thrilling though!
