so... ummm... this isn't going to be popular... it doesn't have the exec look about it

but ours is reliable, very practical and economic to run... would be very good for you with the little one and the dogs... or for chucking a load of luggage in the back

this one isn't a bad spec and I am sure you could wheeler deal a discount...

7 series are lovely cars but fiendishly complicated when they go wrong, i know i'm going to get shouted at but how about a rover 75 with the cdti bmw engine...crap image but very comfy and a nice engine.

I would go for an Omega V6, preferably the 3.0 or 3.2. A very nice place to be for a motorway journey and the interior beats the spartan 5 series BMW.

Go for an Elite for all the toys or an MV6 with slightly fewer toys but slightly sharper handling.

You get a bonus every time you open the taps too - especially with a drilled airbox. There are few better sounding V6s.
