You think a vectra is too small for you and a baby?

ffs, we used to get by with a borrowed 3 door fiesta carrying 6 people.

It is when you travel back and forth between countries quite often. Do you have ANY idea how much stuff you need to take for a baby? LOL

The boot was filled up with all his stuff which only left part of the backseat for our stuff. I had a bloody suitcase under my feet.

So yeah, if it were just for here it's absolutely perfect.

Yes, I remember all the crap that my dad used to have in his car for my little sister. It all fitted in the boot of his astra estate, like, which is what you want.

*an estate, not an astra, like.

I'd recommend an rs6 avant

I don't want an estate, I think they look bloody awful. It's for people with dogs. No offense like. I just really don't like the look of them.

Why would I be offended by your opinion on a car?

I woudn't like an estate myself, but they're practical for what ewe want.

I can sell you a c70 cabriolet if ewe want, like.
My dad's got one going spare at his hoose which he said I could borrow until he sells it, but the insurance on it would cost way too much for me (2.5 turbo and i'm 22)

Yeah but there's practical and just really fucking ugly.

Range Rover = large, looks nice, will carry baby and 2 people in backseat comfortably and has loads of boot space. Plus, the husband has his mind set on a caravan ( don't tell Clarkson), they're good for stuff like that.
