Hello, I am looking for my first car and have a maximum of 4000€ available for it. It should be used for surf trips, so it should be as spacious as possible. I don’t need a frill, don’t need a lot of horsepower, don’t want to drive fast and appearance also plays a minor role. I want to keep the car 2-3 years and will not drive more than 10tkm in the year. Environment badge is not mandatory. Important is: – cheap consumption and maintenance – plenty of space -> min. Kombi (for surfboards, might also like to sleep in it (1,95m)) – cheap spare parts and the possibility to repair a lot myself I’ve already read a lot, often a Mondeo is recommended as a petrol or an Omega B Caravan. Have already looked at the older Dacia Logan (2007) in the simple equipment with diesel engine. You get it for under 4000€ in good condition, it has a lot of space and is very economical. Most, who have one, report also very posit iv of it. Of course, a high-roof combi like Caddy, Opel Combo etc would also be eligible. However, with longer surfboards (>3m) a normal combi is of advantage and the long high-roof combi like Caddy Maxi or Fiat Doblo Maxi are quite expensive. T3/T4/Hyundai H1 or similar would not be bad either, but probably I will have more expenditures in the 3 years overall than for a combi. Can you help me with my decision a little further? Would you like to give me an e.g. recommend an old Mondeo or a somewhat newer Logan? Or are there other very spacious, cheap cars?
