I'm more certain than ever that a GLB/EQB will replace the Yeti, as that's the next car to get changed anyway. Whether that'll creep into this year I don't know, and somewhat doubt, but it seems to be logical choice, if I can get my wife to accept the size of it (f'nar).

E53 is what I'm aiming for and that won't be till later in '25 I guess.
I’d have thought it wa a lot bigger than a Yeti, is it not? I saw one today and though of it as a mini GLS as opposed to something between an A and C (in the Mercedes vernacular)
The problem is that when we got the Yeti we just had one child with no plans for more. Now we've a second and it's harder to put all their paraphernalia in the Yeti, and if hers becomes the family car to take on holiday then that's definitely a no-no with the Yeti.

The Volvo is nice but just too small, definitely.
Superb...

Wifey only wants an 'SUV/crossover'. Wouldn't entertain a 3 box car.
