Thanks for the heads up on those , never even thought about them and would suit my requiremenets perfectly for towing the horse trailer, 0-60 7.9 secs

We test drove an HR-V VTEC 4WD a couple of weeks back with a view to upgrading Amanda's Civic - we were very impressed.
If we had been offered a better trade-in we would have bought it.

There is also a new car out from Honda later this year called the F-RV and based on the C-RV. Looks nice. I don't know if we want to wait that long though.

I thought the F-RV was already out

I can't understand why anyone would buy an MPV over an estate car.
Maybe if you've got 5 kids it makes sense, otherwise they're ugly, more expensive, and have little usable boot space without taking seats out.

But then again I can't understand why people buy big 4x4s to take their kids to school.

I'm as guilty of this illogical thinking as anyone else, I've got two dogs and an S2000

We have 5 door HR-V auto. Good car, handles well.

To be honest, if I were youI would not spend anywhere near

I`ve got an MY04 Passat estate for fishing.

It`s a fully loaded TDI 130 bhp Highline; alloys, full leather, 6 disc, climate control, winterpack, heated seats, all the gadgets.

Its a fab vehicle and I`d advise anyone with that need to consider one but I`ll be honest, I`m VW biased - I`ve had loads of em. The quality has always been fantastic. Soon as I bought this car, did 1500 miles fishing trip to France, no probs.

Any more Passat/Golf advice needed, just ask.

Audi A8 its the only way. the boots so big you can put the dog in there.

I tried to see what she would say to an estate car and you should have seen the look on her face it was very similar to . I think she really doesn't want that but she also doesn't want a full blown MPV either instead just a small one like the one below:



unfortunately the car doesn't come like this!

what engines can you get in that Seat?
