Looking for a new car...
-
Any proposals here? What I'm looking for is a Combi (two big dogs), my preference is an MBenc, but that is not a must. Budget: Max. EUR 45K Looking forward for your responses, thank you in advance ;)
It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question
VW Caddy Max Kombi For that budget you can spec every conceivable extra going, you'll end up with a motor that seats five in comfort with enough room in the back to take two deerhounds in comfort as well (for those not versed in canine breeds think small donkey). Fantastic vehicle to drive, especially in the automatic variant. Mine can easily return not far off 63 miles to the gallon when driven on long runs on European motorways. Not quite as good a return on UK roads, but then again our roads are shit.

You're not kidding! I had to drive the M4 from Swansea to Newbury and back as part of a funeral in Guildford last Monday and boy could you tell when you entered England. The number of potholes and worn-out surface on a fast motorway was unbelievable.

Exactly how big are your dogs? Are we talking St-Bernard-big or just Golden Retriever-big?

Hell, with two of those, you don't need a car! Get a sled or a carriage!

Looks like Berner Senner to me, except for the colour. So, properly big then. That excludes cars that people think has a large luggage compartment, but doesn't. Like Audi A6 and Volvo V90 and similar. So if you want a normal car there are not so many to chose from: VW Passat (Maybe), Skoda Superb Combi, Mercedes E-class. If you look at larger SUVs there are quite a few more to choose from: Audi Q7, BMW X7, Land Rover/ Range Rover, Mercedes GL, GLB, GLE & GLS, Porsche Cayenne (actually), Seat Tarraco, Skoda Kodiaq, Toyota Landcruiser, VW Touareg & Tiguan and Volvo XC90. (And any US SUV) But the best bet if you want a practical car are among the people carriers: Citroën Berlingo & Spacetourer, Dacia Lodgy, Fiat Dobló, Ford C-Max, S-Max, Galaxy and Tourneo, Opel Combo & Zafira, Peugeot Rifter, Renault Grand Scenic and Volkswagen Caddy. If you don't care overly much about reliability that is.

I have no clue about cars, but with two of those in there you need no alarm. People will walk a row around it afraid one might break through the glass.

I suppose then, the indian copied the bad roads from you as well as driving on the right side...
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

The VW Passat Avant (B8 model) or the latest Skoda Superb have one of the biggest trunks on the "car" type. Caddy or Sharan still more place, but I see them more a "van" than a "car".

The Tesla Model Y is just out. Starting deliveries this week in the USA, with current base price $48690, which Google says is EUR 43140.03. This has most options, you can load it up for a few thousand more.

I suppose you know how to get a St.Bernhard into a Beetle? Put in there while it is a puppy.

What breed is that dog actually? Colours fit with St Bernhard, but they're generally bulkier. Looks like a Berner Senner to me, but the colours are wrong. I suppose I would still guess on a lean St Bernhard, but I'm not sure.

It is called "Landseer" and as far as I know is based on "Newfoundland". English wiki: Landseer (dog) - Wikipedia[^] The german wiki has a bit more information: Landseer (Hunderasse) – Wikipedia[^]

Didn't know that breed. Seems like there's disagreement on different Wikipedia pages on whether they should be considered a version of NewFoundland or not.
