Hello together, since my Passat B5 has given up some time ago due to engine damage, I am currently looking for a new car. The most important criterion is the size. Since I often want to use the car to go to Holland for windsurfing, I need to have both the possibility to fix the boards on the roof and to have enough space in the trunk. The Passat was fine there of the size, but would not have I probably drive around 15,000 km a year, but I don’t have anything against a diesel because of the current discussions. The possible driving bans would not deter me. I consider it particularly important that I don’t have to go all the way into the workshop with the car. I want to have a solid car, which is always loyal to me. Of course, I am aware that you can only look at a used car in front of your head, but there are j a with every model so its pitfalls. So far I have especially considered the Ford Mondeo MK3 because it has a good price-performance ratio to offer from my point of view. Or am I wrong? I was actually satisfied with the passat, however, comparable passes always seem to be significantly more expensive than the Mondeos. In addition, on the German roads you see Toyota Avensis relatively often. Can you tell me something about it? Are there other cars that I see in every case? If it’s important: from time to time I drive to Holland with a smaller caravan, if you get the stress-free pull, that would be nice-to-have. Thank you in advance for your answers.
