Hi Everyone,
Hope that you are well. I currently daily drive a 2010 Mercedes-Benz E500 Coupe. I have recently transferred to another geographical location within the same company. The area itself is not very pleasant to drive in (bad road surfaces, crime ridden) and much further away in terms of distance.
I am thinking of buying a sub-R80k daily driver that will be lighter on fuel, while not being a completely bare bones car. (Would also like a bit more boot space for family vacations). I don't have a lot of experience in this market segment so your input is greatly appreciated.
I was thinking along the lines of:
Volvo V50 2.0D
Audi A4 Avant 1.9 TDI
Older BMX X3 2.0d or BMX X5 3.0d (Or E90 Station Wagon).
Any other suggestions would be appreciated
