Hi, we are currently driving an Audi A4 B5 Avant, BJ ~98. We are thinking about getting a new car. It should definitely offer more space and consume less, also the CO2 emissions should be lower (not for environmental reasons, purely for cost reasons). We had a Mercedes Sprinter and a Volvo XC90 in sight. The Sprinter because it is very large, and the Volvo because it looks good, offers a lot of space and probably does not lie so often. My dad needs a bigger car to Mu In addition, he would like to save himself the hotel costs if he appears in another city and sleep in the car (however, the equipment also has to be with him) Well my question, what would you recommend? So, the repair costs should be low, and the workshop stays should not exceed 2x per year (as with the Audi) Of the costs, we wanted a Volvo for such a max. 13.000. At the Sprinter you just have to look. The Volvo can be completely transformed into a loading area except for the driver’s seat, can you sleep in it (with an isomat or similar)? Are the spare parts for the Volvo more expensive than for the Benz? And are both more expensive than Audi? How about the insurance? So we live in the big city, but hardly drive here. My dad commutes between here and Bavaria (berlin-bayern) So a sprinter is actually not really a city driver. o thought or? And that’s exactly how the consumption reacts… With the Sprinter only the smallest would be possible anyway, with windows at the rear best, with the Volvo the 2.4 D5 Kinetic. mfg Toast
