    VW and Peugeot are not trendy enough to be parked outside school or nursery gates.
    For that, it has to be Land Rover, Audi, BMW, Merc
    Little Tarquin and Petronella could not be seen to be being dropped off in anything less!
    Round here they all get dropped off in Jags and Land Rovers

      Oh well, missus couldn't decide whether or not she liked the Octavia and wanted a Karoq instead. By the time we got around to pricing it all up again the 0% deals had been pulled (4.1% APR now) and the lead time has gone up to nearly 6 months. Perhaps it's not a good time to buy a car after all - another season in our increasingly rancid, two dog two kid ridden 11 year old cmax awaits.

        Yes, and in my case, a specialist will need the car for another 4 weeks or so to fit specialist adaptations. (I can't use pedals anymore, except on a very short run <5 miles).
        It seems everyone wants small SUV's with some type of 4wd capability.
        Yep, I picked up a Jaaaaaag Sportbrake and it's tragic how unpopular they are. Fantastic car, great to drive, huge amount of space but nobody is interested because it's not stupidly high off the floor and with faux 4WD. The good news is I saved ~£25k by buying 2 years old!

            We were about to look for a ‘new’ second hand car but it looks as if we’ll have to keep the Astra for another year…
