Re: What to buy?

Any suggestions? I'd prefer an estate, but don't want a newer Merc
since the ones from the early 90's are not built as well. Also, the
budget's about £2500. I'm drawn to a Galant - the V6 model is all I
can afford,

Volvo V40 / Volvo 850 -

Strangely I was thinking of either a decent V40 or probably an 850 T5
estate.

Merc 300E

I've decided. No more Mercs. I've had several and they've each been worse
than the last. Except a 1998 E200, which was like an out-of-control Transit.
At least it was the company's when I reversed into the Bosses new 528SE.

The fact that my wife can't reach the pedals on my 300TE is also an issue.

Subaru Impreza / Legacy

The Legacy is a possibility, but there's engine issues aren't there? The
Impreza would be too small.

V6 Vectra / Mondeo

I'd prefer something that doesn't say 'repmobile'. But certainly a
possibility - and more likely to get past the approval of SWMBO.

156 Sportswagon thingy


I'd prefer an Alfa. But the reliability concerns me more than a little.

Thanks for the advice.
