The car it would be replacing would be a focus Davie. I've had it 8 years and only had one problem that was my fault.

It's going to be a hard one to top.

reading 19.2MPG in the X5 the now

Ouch, thats a tad expensive

I'm averaging 28.5mpg over the past 9500miles (trip computer B ) Although 8.5mpg when your in a bit of a hurry

Really like those S3's. Just can't justify the price for the amount of miles I do.

Yes,they are pricey,but i believe you get what you pay for,can't fault it on anything really, stunning performance & handling,yet can sqeeze 32mpg cruzin on motorway, only problem being i'ts the wife's car and i hardly get to drive it !

Best car over all had to be the Range Rover Vogue, however, as it spent many days being fixed it did become a pain.

So it got replaced with the Touareg which is an amazing bit of kit.

Massive power (now its been tuned, but fast in std form), massive brakes and handles like a car due to 20" rubber.

Still returns 28-30mpg and 23mpg with a big trailer or caravan on its back.

Faster than an Impreza (std one anyway), and only the AMG ML's and Cayenne Turbos can pass it. Had it a year and a half so that speaks volumes for us , keeping any car that long!

After that it has to be the RA, but I wouldn't class it as an every day car even if it is road going.

Its not practical, its noisey, only has two seats, hates the wet and costs a fortune to keep warm in the garage!!

However, still the best Impreza I have ever owned and it will only get better as its getting the Motec fitted when I get home from the next job.

Between Roger Clarke and Bob Rawle Im sure they will make it "interesting"

Hello neighbour!

Yep, the Ra has only had two outings since October. I have walked further than it has driven!

The batmobile is the V6 TDI. Never thought it would be as quick as it turned out.

Its only had a remap, but a strong one you could say. Not been on a dyno but is around 300 at the flywheel.

Its Allys jeep, so there is no way I am going to change the exhaust or intercooler etc. Those days are over!

I would recomend these to anyone looking for a 4x4.

The only thing out there that we would consider is the Porsche Cayenne 4.8 turbo. However, I dont think it will happen unless my head falls off!!
