Purely because I’ll pay less tax. I'd have one also because I am tight but they aren't a great drive tbh. In fact they are pretty shite. However we are strange and like camping so that would come in handy so if offered I probably would take it. No doubt come change time I will yet again be offered a fucking Vauxhall SUV, a Skoda or VW. So VW it is, simply because it's usually the best of the bunch. At one time I could choose all available from most manufacturers but now they are right bastards and only give you 3 or 4 cars to choose from. Utter shite. I would take the payment instead if it wasn't such a faff with lead times these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If SUV was a Nation, it would be the 6th worst CO2 polluter. I don't give a stuff but I don't have kids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do a lot of miles. I’ve had Passats and Mercs for the last few years and they’re obviously very comfortable and never miss a beat. Ill sacrifice a certain amount of comfort for the cash saving, but if it’s a bag of spanner’s I’ll get shut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mate, if you are thinking what is basically an agricultural vehicle will be anywhere near what a passat or merc is like on any road, never mind a motorway, then it is no wonder you were hoodwinked into voting brexit.

Fair comment. Lke Brexit, I’ve only done a limited amount of research since I actually have better things to do. Like Brexit, I’ve been told I’ll be better off. So, you have a point ☺️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have one if offered as I do fuck all miles, handing my passat back in spring with probably less that 17k on the clock after 4 years. I should take the money instead really but I like the fact I get a decent enough car to drive that isn't my problem to maintain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloke I know who’s had a ranger for 2 years is adamant that it’s a decent motorway cruiser. But he does drive JCB’s as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example we have to have a car capable of carrying 5 people and the car must have 4 doors or more. Also depends on what car they give you as a CC and what allowance they are offering instead of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
