Default Help me find a car

So i had a look a phaeton even though it was a nice car it was too big!

I'm after something diesel, quick'ish, is pref a 6 cylinder or something, very comfortable and if possible 4 wheel drive.

Don't want a audi a4 quattro or 3 series, or 4x4.

Max budget 14k

Cheers

XC60/XC90 and start wearing flat caps.

Tbh .. you are about £10k shy of anything that isn't either a barge or ancient.

As Pete said, Good luck.

Most are 4WS (some 4WD) but one of those Infiniti M-things (they recently renamed everything and I'm now lost) fits the bill for buttons.

Very rare though.

I thought on your last "what car "thread, you were aiming for an A5 3.0 TDi Quattro?

Otherwise, the choice is rather narrow.
