- commute 50 miles a day
- lug around family stuff on the weekend
- holiday with my wife and 2 year old with all their stuff to transport
I would like something practical but with a bit of poke and fun. I've been looking at warm estates (GTD/Octavia VRS) but would consider an older car than I have now if it's a good'un. What do you guys think?

Straight 6 BMW estates 2.5 3.0 can't go wrong and fuel consumption isn't that bad. Easily forgiven for the poke and the sound track. I am fond of the Volvo t5s but it would have to be an 850r
Agreed.
I have owned four 2 litre Audis for the last 18 years.
When I blew up the last one I bought a 330d in a panic. My god it's fast.

this is what I'm thinking. More suggestions would be mega.Personally I would rather have something even 10 years old and interesting and pocket the 10 grand extra required for a newish diseasal euro box

I know someone who has a plugin Mercedes C class estate.0-60 in about 5-6 seconds, top speed limited to 155 as the norm with german cars. Gets him excellent MPG aswell on long runs.
He loves it so much his weekend toy BMW Z4 is up for sale.
