Rear netting you get on most estate cars is suprisingly strong. It has certainly stood up to heavy objects and emergency stops.

Most Germany estates allow you to drop the seats and then re-attach the net just behind the drivers seats. I do lots of miles like this, back of the car filled up like a van and front seats nicely protected.

If your wife is just nervous about the size of the estate car and she is looking for excuses(this was my wife's concern) just get parking sensors! She can now park my car better than her Seat Ibiza.

Having just been given a hire car estate for a few days I can confidentally tell you that the biggest problem you'll have is parking up in ASDA. It's a like a freaking BUS!

? My estate car is about a foot longer than the hot-hatch version, hardly bus-like. And my mother can drive and park a 5 door landcruiser without thinking it's like a bus, MTFU ๐Ÿ˜€
