Cheers, but after an estate!2011 seat exeo 89k 2.0tdi 120bhp (£30 tax) Full mot £4K
A nice VRS octavia would be the ticket.Cheers, but after an estate!
To be honest , size isn't overly an issue. Everything fits into the wife's Mini with ease, so there's more than plenty of room in my saloon Passat.
Just fancy an estate this time around.
If i can't find anything suitable i could end up selling the M3 and buying a newish X5!

You may be right! Ive never owned a jeep before, so can’t comment. I do like the idea of one but as you say, the novelty may ware off quickly.I would say you’ll hate it coming from an M3. I’m glad I didn’t get another jeep to be honest. The novelty soon wears off.
I'd also consider spending a few quid and getting a DT Box for the boot. They're a great job and come in a size to suit most cars.I may just invest in something along the lines of this. Our dog isn’t big so it would have plenty of room.

So... the criteria broadens:
- 2012 or newer
- Diesel
- 2 litre or greater
- Less than 130k miles
- Saloon, estate or jeep
- Any colour apart from black
- Preferably a nicer trim level (i.e M Sport, S Line, VRS, AMG, etc)
- Approx £5k
B7 Passat is definitely a contender. Would like to find one over here to save the travel while COVID is around.I think a B7 Passat Estate would be a good shout for that criteria. I’ve always liked them and think they still look fairly fresh.
First one of AT as an example;
Vrs would be ticket
I’ve had imprezas,m3s, an evo plenty of performance vw, Touareg,x5 and shogun but once I got rrs I’d struggle to get back in car
I’ve toyed with it and had rrs sold but changed my mind as I know I’d miss comfort etc
Is your budget still £5k?BUMP.
Got the wife sorted with a replacement for her Mini, so i'm not back looking at a replacement for my Passat.
Something along the lines of:
- 3 or 5 Series (Saloon or Touring)
- A4 or A6 (Saloon or Avant)
- MK6 Golf GTD
- Newer Passat
- Jaguar XF
- Octavia VRS
- R Line Tiguan
- X3 or X5
- Leon FR
Must be 5 door and would prefer an estate. No blacks and no more than approx. 130k miles.
TIA!
Ideally yes, but i'd maybe spend £6.5k on the right car.Is your budget still £5k?
XC60 or V60?

Edit- lol, forgot about the no blacks. My bad. Just an idea though!
Unfortunately not. I’ve one too cheap and one too dear.Ideally yes, but i'd maybe spend £6.5k on the right car.
Do you have something that may tick the boxes?
Whats the cheap one?Unfortunately not. I’ve one too cheap and one too dear.
