Whilst chatting away about nothing in particular, as you do, Ian and I both found last weekend that we didn’t feel anything for the Mondeo!
It is by far the newest car we’ve ever owned, it does everything well, including towing the van, but it’s boring and makes us both feel old before our time.
I know the dreaded cost to change will be discussed on here but we already know it’s not a good financial decision to sell it after less than a year but we also know life is too short to look at everything from a financial point of view too.
We went to the launch of the new Bailey caravan a couple of weeks ago and fell in love with it so we need a car that will pull a bigger caravan easily.
We’ve spent the week doing sums and looking at various options and (sorry Alanovic!) but it looks like going back to a 4x4, which will also prove easier to get in and out of for me than the Mondeo.
We’ve short listed the Kia Sportage, CRV mk3 and Mitsubishi Outlander.
It won’t be a new one by any means but we hope to sell the Mondeo and add less than £1500 to what we get for it.
I think Manatee can give some info on the Outlander regarding towing?
We tow for about 1200 miles a year and do a total of 1200 per year otherwise.
Thoughts?
Pat
