There used to be the estate version of the bmw down the end of our road but it went a few years ago.I would love a 4x4 diesel estate.But unless you want an Audi/VW etc theres not much choice.
When my Dad retiered a few years ago his 407 company car went & he brought a Kia Sorento diesel auto.At best he was getting 27mpg,& 20 ish mpg towing the caravan.He sold it last year & brought another 407 sw hdi.
The 4x4 was good in the winter,but the mpg was too much.At least if you had a standard height 4x4 estate diesel,you should be able to get 45 mpg.
They are here too!
I think Lozz was just on about the Legacy Diesel.

Mate of mine back in the UK managed to pick up a fairly late Forrester (2004 I think) for peanuts and he was out here with it last year. It seemed a nicely put together car, nothing of the "child's toy" build quality of the yoyo. Only 2 things put me off it, one was the seat position didn't suit my back and the other was the all-too-familiar emissions system failure warning lights on the dash. Other than that, great car.
We have a large subaru breakers less than 4 miles away, although i rarely see legacys around here, but i think thats peoples obsession with german cars.
Did they offer the jag x-type estate in diesel 4x4 flavour?
There is also the renault scenic, not a proper estate but 4x4 was available.
