    Wife needs a new car - Suggestions?

    We are looking for another car and asking advice. 4 door sedan, boot space. No AWD/SUV, no Hybrid!

    We have a VW Tiguan as a company car - gutless plastic and looking at something a little closer to the ground.

    She is fixated on a BMW for the same reason a cat chases laser dots around the lounge room... it's funny but for no reason

    The boys at home want a V8.

    Beside the company car, nothing. She has been fortunate enough to have a car provided for 7 years - we have had 2 x BA Falcons and this VW. My car is a BA and we are running it into the ground so to speak.

    Her other car is a genuine 1970 GT Capri, but she/we need a second car for work and family stuff.

    Cruze looks good, but I have to steer her away from these damn BMW 320I's that are everywhere at the moment!
