That was an rs4. Don't want anything that balls out but want something to hold a dog and be a bit of fun on the commute. The passat is boring now. Lookin at s4, 335i, in estate config.

I've got much better than that already

Had this strapped to cars for over 6 years. Estate is essential, even with the box



Thats always on my cars. Stuck outside now

It's the 'quick' bit that will limit your choice i suspect. Anything 'newish' will be blighted with electronics and anything old will be too basic I suspect.

Shame those TDV6 Discos are so expensive. You could fish out of the back of one of those

edit : Nissan Stagea - 4x4 and R33 Skyline drivetrain / engine - HUGE boot!
