Your perfect solution is sitting on Stuy's drive: well, apart from all wheel drive Jay how true is that
drifting drifting and yet more skidding

Okay, Stewy's is very nice but all wheel drive is second on my list of priorities therefore a must so no good there. Also they only have a towing weight of approx 1600 kgs which is not enough. RS4's are very nice and tempting but the fuel economy is poop Need some carefull consideration here peeps. Any more suggestions ?

If the RS4's a no go what about an A6 Quattro? They come in Diesel, are quick, more spacious than the RS4, AWD, good mpg, not sure about the towing weight though but it will be higher than the RS4 if that was tempting you...

Only problem with the Signum, and I mean no offence when I say this, but it is the harsh reality..... .....its a Vauxhall. This means that in a couple of years it'll be worth 2 buttons, and a used tea bag
What If There Were No Hypothetical Questions?

A6 Quattro : Now we are talking, or i think the A4 quattro have good towing weights.... They come in a 1.9 TDi producing 130 bhp and 2.5 V6 TDi producing some 186 bhp with nearly 400 lbs of torque. Still get 40 MPG and you can chip them higer. Good recomendation mate Vauxhall Signum Elite Nav 3.0CDTi V6 24v Its a vauxhall and its NOT all wheel drive from what u need in a car,i can only suggest a range rover diesel.

Couldnt u give the economy factor the heave ho? You mean like the one i have Mr Scoop Fuel economy it terrible RWD : Gets stuck on the beach BMW 535D Rear wheel drive Just to clarify this is what i am looking for..... I need the following in a new car (In Order of priority) - Good Fuel economy (40 MPG Plus)
- All Wheel Drive
- Towing weight above 2000 kgs
- Spacious
- Performance
Okay, to achieve 40 MPG plus will require a diesel engined car but modern diesels are fast and so so torquey i dont mind that and you can chip them easilly enough. All wheel drive for the good old Jetski, I tow a car trailer and that weighs approx 400 kgs so a 2000 kgs towing limit would allow me to tow a car weighing 1600 kgs which is borderliine as i occasionally tow heavier, also need to tow my caravan. Spacious as i carry allot of stuff about and used to a spacious vehicle now and obviously performance, i dont think i need to explain that one to you guy's n gals..... Any suggestions but it must meet the above criteria ! The Quattro A6 is the best suggestion as yet peeps, Keep them coming...

I think you chaps missed an important post on the last page: What ARE u looking for jay?? Thats the question Mr Scoop My Plans are changing, i would have loved a Shelby Cobra but the cost is way past what i want to spend. I am selling the Rangy and the Bongo and hoping to replace them with a middle man What i mean is a vehicle that will do both jobs in one (Appart from the camper van thing but i have just bought a caravan for that anyways) I need the following in a new car (In Order of priority) - Good Fuel economy (40 MPG Plus)
- All Wheel Drive
- Towing weight above 2000 kgs
- Spacious
- Performance
