How about a Merc C200 wagon, my younger brother has one and my older brother is picking one up on saturday.
A couple of years old and you can get a really good buy.
Mick, there is a VR sedan just down the rd from my parents house, has a big V in the front from the concrete light pole that it is still wrapped around but it will be good for some parts.
I looked at a C200 wagon recently, they're tiny inside. You would have to get an old 300TE W124 to find the sort of space to rival a Falcon although they are a fair bit narrower.Quote:

Dont wory,Mick is a dreamer;)Quote:

I think I would really like to look at a Mondeo wagon next year and see what room they have and the cost of the different types they have.
As see what mileage they get. They seem to be in the price bracket that we are looking at. Sorry the new Range Rover is out for me;)
I parked next to a Mondeo the other day, they're about three quarters the length of my Fairlane. The Fairlane shares its wheelbase with the Falcon wagon.
I could do with a boot lid and a front right guard.Quote:

:o That's a backward step, even from a Dunnydore. ;)Quote:
