bootleboy Posted March 14, 2004 Author Share Posted March 14, 2004 X type estates start at about £21k, i believe - this is definitely on my short list New Vectra Had one for 3 weeks whilst Mazda were fitting a new gearbox in my 9 month old 6!! I must admit, it was very smooth, seemingly well built, had lots of toys to play with But what did they do with all the legroom in the rear There isnt any! Honestly SWMBO's BMW compact has more legroom and the vectra is massive in comparison Had a 51 plate Saab 93 convertible the summer before last, and vowed never to have another Saab!! Ok, so it was the previous model, but still put me off for life One from left field :- VW Touran 2.0Tdi 140LOL!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockle Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 I know you said you didn't like a Renault Laguna but have you checked out the top spec Initiale? I have a sports tourer (posh name for an estate) 2.2dCi. 150bph, GPS, ESP, cruise, heated/memory front seats, parking sensor, leather interior, climate control and much more.

TBH, my soon to be ex-Director has what seems to be the same car as you have, and it is very nice, i have to admit. Shame about the extremely light (part) leather interior though Its just a personal thing im afraid - i just dont want one Though, i do believe that they are miles better than a few other alternatives out there - Vectra (lack of rear space), Primera, Citroen C5 , 406 etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
