Go mental and buy a Tesla Model S next time, seven seats and about 750bhp. Satisfies the family side, and the midlife crisis side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 How middle aged is this. On a cold morning, if you don’t fancy sitting on a cold seat and waiting for the car to warm up, simply heat it in advance from an app: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 People looking for high end lease options should look at the E class Mercedes. For some reason they are always good value. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I am not middle aged. The rest is all spot on. Turning 40 next year. I know people are living longer but that’s probably middle aged. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary Bear Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 This is online bullying. Who you gonna tell? Div abandoned this place for Twitter ages ago. I think Twitter is Div’s midlife crisis. Probably bought a sports car too. Possibly saving up for the Leigh Griffiths new hair upload. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a Mk2 VRS a few weeks ago, fast(ish) when you want or a comfy relaxed cruiser when you want that.A good all-rounder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coincidentally I looked at the other two cars on your list and also a Mitsubishi Outlander and found that the X-Trail was a far better car, much more spacious IMO and turns the heads of ignored wives and single Mums.

I stopped using my private plate last year. I get a new lease car every two years and it’s a pain in the arse (and costly) to keep changing it. However I’m far less likely to remember the registration now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm too old to bother racing anyway but they're quick enough to be enjoyable, the massive boot is a huge benefit aswell. 21 minutes ago, Granny Danger said: I stopped using my private plate last year.

Also looked at the Kia and its got more space inside. Bit pricier for the model I'd be looking at and doesn't have the option of a petrol engine that the Nissan does. I also got to sit in the GTR that they had in the showroom as well like a daft wee laddie. What's £95k between friends...... Edit: I've not even looked at the Mitsubishi as every review of it says it's shite. Edited February 17, 2018 by KnightswoodBear 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you intend to go off roading, or is it a safety thing for a bad winter? Never felt the need myself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightswoodBear Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 We want something with the option of 7 seats and I don't want to drive a van with windows. The 4wd really isn't a factor in it. In fact the Nissan with the petrol engine only comes in 2wd 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
