• To be honest i might give up on trying to get something fun at this stage.

    So far I've suggested the following to the wife:
    Mazda 3 mps
    Mk2 Focus st3
    Hawkeye impreza wrx wagon

    All of these were a no because they look like boy racer cars.

    If i ditch the need for a manual gearbox it opens up much more potential contenders. And to be honest an auto probably suits my use case more right now (long motorway blasts a few times a year, loaded with bikes, luggage and greyhound).

    Bought a new car today and it's an auto, never had one before but I thought exactly the same. After driving it for a few hours already glad I went this route for schlepping around.

  • What kind of auto?

  • Sounds just like me 10 months ago.
    I'm now on my 2nd auto. Both are Legacies. Great cars, very capable in every aspect, and very under-rated.

    @Colm89 how about the Range Rover Sport?
    I think what you actually need is a Subaru estate. ;)
