Don't get the love - drinks like a fish, reverse tardis interior, bullet proof is great until it goes bang and you will weep at the parts prices and lots of lovely shiny plastic bits for you look look at inside.Boring choice but £3.5 - £4k will get you an Octavia 4x4 with the pd lump. Much bigger inside and half the price to run every day.

"bullet proof is great until it goes bang and you will weep at the parts prices"

And yet you go on to suggest an octavia as an alternative.....parts on my golf made me weap compared to just about every other car ive had. - 2 fords , a hyundai , a peugeot , 2 land rovers and a vauxhall. - bar the hyundai( ecu died which was spendy) none of them really needed much despite all being at least 10 years old when i bought them except my peugeot i bought at 3 years old.

Hmmm - bigger van and 4x4 - Terry needs a Dangel 🙂

When we last went to Norway loads of the the Citroen Jumpy vans we saw (aka Dispatch in UK) were 4x4 conversions.

On my third octavia estate done 195k over that time in 6 years, normal consumables with oil/filter every 6k,one reconditioned turbo fitted at £480 was the only non service item - car before that was a 99 gx impreza estate, was fun to drive in a wobbly but grippy way but was just too expensive to drive once I was doing over 40 miles a day

In other news my front end rebuild of the frontera seems to have worked - so oher than a few battle scars she actually drives better than ever.

New steering rack ( snapped in crash) meant total removal of the front suspension and wishbones. + new wishbones , brake hose , copper line , wing and indicator on the passengers side .

Some hammerite will sort out the rest.
