new baby - new car time?

mjquinno

so i have a 3 week old son.
i also have a Alfa GT Coupe 2.0 diesel. which i love driving. however getting the little guy in and out of the back is starting to get on my nerves. plus the booth is devoured by the buggy. its just starting to get impractical - if it wasnt already but the 20 something mjquinno bought it the 30 something mjquinno need to keep his back in a straight line.


So new car time.

We do about 10k miles a year Dublin based driving, twice a month on average trip to galway and back.

so prob need 5 door, prob need petrol, i like leather seats and comfort but economy as well. i suppose something a little sporty but not fussy.

2008 - 2012 - something thats reliable.

I had the same issue when my son was born, had an Alfa GT as well.

I bought an Alfa 166 as I wanted everything you said above , to be hones I spent 4 month's deciding and don't for one second regret it there a fantastic car with amble room in the boot and back for my son , comfortable for my regular trips down the country with work and sporty when I fancy hitting the sports throttle button and going out by myself for a spin, interior is a great place to be as well , full Momo black and cream leather etc..

Basically any car that catches your eye will suffice, as you only have one child.

Its when you hit numbers 2 and 3 and 4 that you become a lot more limited !!
