The hunt for a new car continues, but I have lost my main sounding board (i.e. my wife) due to unforseen circumstances (she is so sick of me talking about what car I should get she’s told me to never speak to her of the subject again). So, I thought I would run the latest list of choices past a load of random people on the internet, i.e. you lot.
Currently I am considering the VW Passat, Audi A4 and Volvo V50 (as they are the biggest, newish estate cars I can find locally). I know the Passat will be good, but the ones I have seen so far are either old/high Miles, or nearly new and have a price tag that makes the inner Scrooge weep. Same with the A4. Oddly, the Volvos seem to be reasonable.
With a budget of 5k (give or take) I need to choose wisely. Should I even be considering the Volvo?
