Folks,

Mum is 69 and still likes to drive in a spirited fashion. She currently has a Mini Cooper Clubman (08) and an old Polo as the dog car...

Polo has finally gone to car heaven today.

She needs a replacement for both cars, it’s bonkers her not just having one all rounder so...

Up to about £5k
Petrol (purely due to usage)
Decent driving
Not humungous but... can fit a lurcher and lab in the back, so probably estate
She tends towards the more ‘premium’ brands. She is thinking Golf...

E-Pace? :haha: Sod that, she’s not made of money!

She’s a bit of a badge snob so the Fabia might not work. I think 3 series might be the way to go

Haha, before dropping back into this thread I saw my mum for lunch.

I actually suggested a Skoda Yeti, think it’s a great idea. She thinks it is an old person car rofl
