They do a Jag Xtype estate. Sounds what you need, not one of those poncy SUVs that are less practical and more for the image afflicted, i.e vain.

Actually I used to have one of those huge volvo estates about 10 years ago, my kids were young and it was a really great car. I hardly ever see estate cars on the road now, thought they disappeared, but went to car giant today to have a look and the had some, mostly huge mileages on them though !! but relatively cheaper than SUV even the BMWs and MercsOriginally posted by Dark Black View PostDo you need to go off road much?
No? Then you don't need an SUV, you just need a decent estate...

Whatever you get, make sure you add tracker/immobilser/steering wheel lock/OBD port blocker and get the anti snap bolts for your external doors.

The Isignia is clearly better than a Mondeo, and any German will tell you that, because they don't drive Mondeos for good reason.
