Not sure how prices are these days but it should get you a 2l petrol in that budget. Possibly not quite enough to stretch to a 272/280 though
You won't find anything as roomy unless you go up to 5series size
My Cayenne was £5k just under a year ago and I’ve spent over £2k on it since then Some of it necessary, some of it elective. It seems to be running quite well now.
I'm not sure - the closest model to the mk3 Superb is actually the Arteon. They're essentially the same save for the Arteon has a more sloping rear roofline, which I found quite intrusive when trying to get in/out and I'm fairly average height at 5'11".Sundayjumper wrote: ↑Thu Dec 30, 2021 10:02 am Are the Passat & Superb the same platform ? Passat estate is certainly very roomy, we’ve had two, but they are rather dull to drive. Anything “sporty” has a steeply sloping rear window that seriously eats into the headroom in the boot; depending on the size of your dogs that might be important.
You may as well cut out the middle man and go straight to a Disco. Huge capacity. Just keep your fingers crossed on the repair bills….
An FF has been on my "retirement" fantasy list for a while but I do seem to have been watching a lot of videos about them in the last few weeks, so its spooky you mention them. Obviously I have a thing for the breadvan/shooting brake style of cars and I'm somehow trying to convince myself that its going to be doable in a few years time. I'm also liking the look of the Panamera touring hybrid things.
I’ve had 3 dogs in mine. My 2 Labrador and a bigger Goldendoodle.Sundayjumper wrote: ↑Fri Dec 31, 2021 4:54 pm How big are your dogs ? I suspect you'll find the 3-Series a bit cramped. That's exactly why we ended up with a Passat.
All labs/retrievers, but won't be looking to take all of them in it at the same time.Sundayjumper wrote: ↑Fri Dec 31, 2021 4:54 pm How big are your dogs ? I suspect you'll find the 3-Series a bit cramped. That's exactly why we ended up with a Passat.
