After giving this a great deal of thought because this is going to come up in the next few years, cos miggies (much as I love 'em) won't see my working life out.....Its got to be a big VOLVO V70 estate. there just isn't anything else that carries as much, munches the miles, and has the longevity. Only thing wrong is its front wheel drive, and i can see problems with the weight I carry up all those twisty welsh mountain roads.........but I suppose the Police carry as much as me, and it seems to be OK for them :-/

Actually, the Chrysler 300c estate with the mercedes 3 litre V6 TD (in Black with big wheels) wouldn't be too bad either............

Anybody know much about 'em??

I'd have a BM 5 series estate any day, don't care what TB says about 'em. It's the car the Omega wants to be
