Looking for a new car...

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

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.

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.

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
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.

These are two of this size: https://www.codeproject.com/script/Content/ImageUploads/6e8355d3-61ab-40c8-859e-cb49e0c99b37.png[^] :) The longer I think about it the more I'm ready for something like this https://www.autoscout24.ch/de/d/steyr-suv--gelaendewagen-occasion?vehid=7434733&backurl=%2Fautos%2Fsteyr%3Fmake%3D222&make=222&vehtyp=10[^] :laugh:

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.

I know about this dispute whether it is originally Newfoundland or not. For me, this doesn't count. Our two do anyway not exactly meet the standards of the breeders. One has too much black, the other has too little black in the fur. And even more, if we hadn't taken the two, they would have been sorted out (probably killed, what a shame!). For me it is only their nature that counts and this is very good. They are excellent guards (which is very good for us since we live very remote) on the other hand, they are very gentle to people they know. [Edit] Berner Senn: We had one too, but we had to let him go before three weeks :(( [Edit 1] I just asked back her, the boss. She does know much more about that... she thinks She thinks it is a mixture with Newfound and Leonberger - Wikipedia[^]

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.
Ugly car :laugh: But really I will think about it! It looks comfortable and the 45K I mentioned ... I'm very happy to have a good car for half of that. I don't need this and that extra. Thank you for this hint :thumbsup:

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.

Now, one of them (the younger one) is currently too nice. Means, give him food and it will be happy (I think with training this will change). But the other one is the total opposite (and this by nature), in case he does not know you (means he didn't saw you with the family) he can become a "beast" :-D

I had to look this up because they aren't sold in North America. I found a YouTube video[^]. I thought OP wanted a car, not a bus! It's amazing that you get 63 mpg on a motorway. The engine must be undersized to the point where the vehicle's epithet will be The Envy of Sisyphus, because it'll be OK so long as you push it uphill.

Actually mine's a two litre , 150 bhp and goes like sh*t of the proverbial shovel. Good returns on motorways come from hitting that sweet spot of engine revs and speed, all too easy to do on European motorways , damn near impossible on British roads.

I would think any of the 7 or 9 seater SUVs would be adequate, or get a twin cab ute, those dogs don't look like they would be discomforted by a bit of wind/rain/snow/blizzard. I would be astonished if any "car" style would be adequate, even a station wagon might be a little low.

If you are not really after a particular brand, you could try Seat Tarraco. It is cheaper compared to big brands. I have been driving a Seat for over an year now and it has not given any problems so far.
