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.

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.

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 ☺️

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.

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

Yes and no. Depends on your T&Cs. 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.
