I'm in the market for a new car for my wife and I'd be grateful of suggestions of some car models to look at.
Requirements in high-low priority:
- Budget up to £7k
- Automatic
- Estate (baby paraphernalia!)
- About 10k miles per year
- A bit of luxury (leather, satnav maybe)
- A bit of power - 150-200hp perhaps - enough to comfortably cruise on the motorway
I note that you can pick up fairly well-specced Jaguar x-type estates for around £4.5-6k. I'm aware they could throw up a few large bills, so the rest of budget would be put in anticipation of this.
£4,900 Jaguar X-Type 3.0 V6 Sport 5dr Auto Estate 2006
£4,000 Jaguar X-Type 2.5 V6 Classic 5dr Auto Estate 2005
Is there anything I should be looking out for on these Jags?
Other models I've been considering:
- Skoda Octavia
- VW Passat
- Ford Mondeo
If you kind folk have any other suggestions, I'd be grateful.
