My son has suggested this as an ideal family car……..and can I get him on the insurance?

That’s perfect for what I need, time to start saving.

Ooooffffff!

Want!

Prefer this

But how is the boot? Will my camelbak podium bottle fit in the doorcard?

I spent a little time looking at a 350bhp Legnum when I was shopping for a “sensible estate” and ruled it out as being silly. But now I realise it was in fact completely sensible, positively slow in fact.

tell him no problem – as long as he foots the purchase & insurance difference between the brabus and a focus

Have you seen the price of S/H V10 M5 Estates now…….

I don’t do many miles now and I`m seriously tempted 😀

The 335D estate is comedy already, but its still a diesel 🙁

Legnums are lovely cars NW. But they are a little thirsty and can be expensive to sort.
If you have one with AYC god does it fly round corners!
I nearly bought one, but couldnt justify the cost of running one, got a V6 Sport which was lovely.

Need.

That would be my ‘practical runaround’ if I won the lottery.

I’m smiling at the thought. No I’m now embarrassed about the wet patch between my legs.

Not a Mercedes fan. Would rather have normal estate car and a proper sports car anyway.

I like this more. Volvo Amazon :

It’s nice…. but not as nice as the V10 RS6 IHMO

Nice, I used to have an RS4 Avant until recently (a pathetic 414BHP, compared to the Merc).

Super-bonkers cars are great for a while, but for 95% of the time I found myself wishing the RS was a bit more comfy and didn’t drink fuel at such an alarming rate. I miss the noise though – my neighbour 3 doors down mentioned how it made the street rumble when I started it up.

@Northwind, I believe that, as an E-class, the boot is massive (690 litres or sommat), and also comes with a handy 7-seat option…

EDIT: Quite clearly – Want.

I’ll let your work out the rest for yourselves…

In a 6’under stylee 🙂

Big power estates for the win!! Miss my volvo 850R wagon every day driving that was Like going a million mph in your grandas study.

I think I’ll stick with my 535D estate. 350bhp is more than enough to lose your licence with.

I really want a silly fast estate. The closest I am likely to be able to afford is a Focus ST. Should still be fast enough to get the mrs shouting at me.

884bhp?

We went to war with a tank that had a 90bhp engine 😯
