Ford Grand Torneo vs Galaxy?

[Somebodywakeuphicks]

Hi all.

After selling my CR-V, and returning a Skoda Superb, I've narrowed down my choices to either the Ford Galaxy, or the Grand Torneo, I need a low boot floor, a massive boot for two massive dogs, and these seem to fit the bill.

Got a budget of around 17k, only thing is, I can't find one that's not a billion miles away from North Wales.


Anyone owned one? Plus/minuses?

Thanks all!

Galaxy will drive slightly better as its designed as a car. The turneo is a van made into a car.

It really depends if you plan on carrying human passangers in nice comfy surroundings?

Only occasionally my dear old mum, but mainly greyhounds, crap, paddle boards, and bikes. But I do like the kit and comfort that comes with the Galaxy. I'm not a masochist!

Tourneo has lots of room, seats can be played around with to get space for load and passengers. Drives well but will never be as comfortable as a Galaxy. More space though.
Have had many over the last 7yrs. Love them.

Where I live is windy, are they horrendous in bad weather, or ok?
