Cars............

[aceboy]

Right just started to think about getting a new (secondhand) car....

I looked at Porsche 911 (997) GT4 & Nissan GTR as they are supposed 4 seats, however the rear seats are not usable

I like the BMW 6 series, but BMW still have that "driven by " image.

So what options are there out there for me....

Criteria

4 usable seats - (2 are used by adults 20% of the time)
Decent size boot
Refined - for long distance
Sporty - for Sunday blasts
Ideally Diesel

2nd hand is fine

I've had 6 GTR's now so would always fly the GTR flag - the seats aren't that small in the back.

Maybe an M5 would tick all the boxes. Theres some good deals around on them at the moment.

Diesel.... something with the Audi V10 twin turbo in it...

6 GTR's?!?! It's only been out for a few years. Or are you talking about Skylines?

[original PM]

Also, 911 and GTR are not diesel. These are 20 MPG cars.

You need you decide, do you want a tractor engine or not?

How about a lovely Focus Ghia Turbo Diesel with velour seats?

I happen to have a second hand one as am living the permie dream and going for a Hyundai instead.....

I always recommend the Nissan Micra to everybody who is looking for a new car.
