I'm headng across Europe to a festival in Budapest (Sziget) in august and I need a practical car for it.

 

We've been 5 times previously in an '89 Audi 80 sport, a '97 Peugeot 406 Estate and most recently a '95 Renault Espace.

 

Each car now has met it's own demise one way or another so now we are looking for something new.

 

Here's the requirements:

Spacious,

At least 4 seats,

Economical,

Reliable (Not French),

Air Con,

Driver arm rest (You wouldn't believe how much difference tha makes),

£1000 at most

 

Cruise control and possibly an auto box is preferred but never had them before so I can happily go without.

 

Who's got the answer..?

 

Checkout the Espace (The Spac™) in this video from one of our roadtrips...

 

For anyone that's interested. I have bought my roadtrip car now. Got a '98 Mazda Bongo!

IT was an ex childminders car so the interior was not pretty. Been scrubbing away at it all day!

Now I just need to kit it out for the roadtrip. If anyone cares to make a donation towards it, they will be much appreciated. So far on my list of things needed is an extra 12v power point, some extra interior lights (I'm thinking just some subtle led strips along the sides of the headliner at various points), any generic stereo that can play mp3 cds (I got room for double din but don't wanna be spending much unless someone's got me an offer I can't refuse), some newer speakers, a 240v inverter socket and a 12v kettle!

So if anyone's got any of thaty junk lying around let me know.

Water pump died mid Germany.

Stuttgart has it now. :\

Hold that thought! The Honda doesn't have a driver's arm rest!

 

Honda stream looks like its got an arm rest!! Don't know anything about them tho.

mazda bongo

No, not the Bongo.
