No, I'm keeping the Alfa. But I'll be putting the 5 series on the classifieds next week if anyone is interested?P.S. I see the car is based in Kildare-you're not trying to flog an Alfa by any chance Tom?
I actually like the look of the Avensis estate. As estates go, it is probably one of the better looking ones along with the A4, Saab 9-3 and Mazda 6. You can pick up T3-X & T3-S specs up north for good money. For extra luxury the T4 Spirit has everything you want but is only available in the 2.2D which was releeased in '05 so gonna be expensive. One thing I would say about estates is to buy a diesel. They are very hard to shift on in petrol. I was this close to buying an Avensis estate last week but to get a decent spec diesel one in the UK it was out of my price range by about €5k. Ended up finding a '05 2.0D Sol Corolla Verso for the missus instead.I'm on my second Avensis estate. I love estates, so much more versitile than saloons IMO. I had a 00 and traded up to the new model a 03 about 2 years ago. Older model had slightly more room in the boot but the new one is a much better car. Only problem is that Toyota only import the Estates in a standard Aura spec. So if you want nice levels of equipment you will need to go for a T4 from the UK. However, I dont think you will get a new model diesel within your budget.
So for me it would be an Avensis but I accept they are not everyones cup of tea.
Probably best bang for the buck car out thereAudi A6 Avant 1.9 diesel
