Is decent mileage a priority
In terms of a car I can get decent mileage out of? Iām not doing huge mileage these days. I had a month earlier this year were I did 7000km, but most months would be anywhere from 2-2500km Iād say
I was going to suggest going down the years and look for a land cruiser. Youād have to go down a right few but if itās well looked after youād have it for as long as you want it.
An older a4 or a6 would be a nice option. Mechanics know their way around them, theyāre easy on juice and they feel fresh with big milesā¦unlike a BMW.

Iād say Iād be going back a bit for an A4 in my price class
Not sure would I quite need the land cruiserā¦wouldnāt have even thought of it.
Just looked and a few decent A4s that might be in my budget up North. Hadnāt considered theyād be in my range at all. good call pal
The 6 is solidā¦I think their diesel is used by Peugeot and ford so should be easy to keep. Looks nice also
Buy the Mazda.

Big boot?
Small boot. The battery uses up a lot of space. On the other hand it means the car is silent. You know the rest ā¦

Does Bobby get a spin in it?
He does. I have a carrier for him for long runs. But for short spins he sits in the front seat
