Big lover of estates here too. Can't see myself being without one tbh. All the space you could need - I find it very handy for work -and IMO in most cases handle better than their saloon variants

Always loved Audi avants/Alfa 156/159 estates/Mercedes, older volvos etc

Jag have recently grasped my attention....

I used to hate them then bought a 9-5 aero, and now an RS4. I love them.
So quick, not bad handling, and yet practical!

Everybody needs an estate in their lives at least once

Edit: current RS6 wins all estate arguments IMO, followed closely by T5r/850R

I would love another estate, my 850R ticked every box, comfortable, fast and could fit half the house in the boot!

 

[Sudesh]

That 850 is stunning. Any more photos?

 

[Weelenny]

No mate that's the only photo I have of that car unfortunately.

Love estates. Don't think there is a saloon car i'd prefer over the estate version.

Big fan of B5 S4 and RS4s.

Owned one of these a few years back(VR4 Legnum,not the Galant estate) and loved it,sold it on a whim and now wish I still had it,really good fit going motors,traffic branch in Derry had a black one one in the early 2000s and after seeing had to have one myself!

And the current 850 t5 (850r wheels and bumper)

Audi range win thou

Searched high and low over here for a E61 535d Msport. Found 1 or 2 in about 3 months but they were out of my budget so my friend lifted this one out of England for me. I absolutely love it and wonder why I haven't had an estate before now. I find a lot of them, especially the ones in the posts above make their saloon equivalent look like FA squared.

Finally.. A picture!

Stunning mate

I used to have an Insigna and a Merc C class estate both great for Ikea etc. I love the new C63 S Merc estate and will get one possibility after the Golf.

Love estates!! First was a v6 veccy Sri on the gas I got from @Coog itnwas great racked up 60k load lugging



Moved onto st220 mondeo and gassed it



Moved from that to a vxr8 which was immense but eventually missed the practicality so have ended up with a superb estate lol fantastic spec comfort and capacity with good economy but no v8 rumble

Moving on some day would love a nice vxr8 estate a6 or one of the jags!!

 

[Coog]

I still see that vectra floating about m00k. Not quite as clean as she once was but still going lol

 

[mcmurray]

I've a serious want for an Evo wagon at the minute.

Would make a great family transporter.

 

[m00k]

@Eamo_vxr had it after me it was grand but then it went down hill after his ownership but seen it not long ago and someone has spent a few ££ on it full gsi rep it looked pretty smart

 

[Sudesh]

"Mook" what make model is that veccy car? Sorry but vision is bad today with my health problem, love the color and wheels on it too.

 

[Sudesh]

I imported about 7 of those. All sold befor they even landed here lol. Super car..

It's a Vauxhall vectra b estate... 2.6 v6 Sri on old set of cavalier turbo rims, loved the colour when the sun hit it

I'll probably get flamed for this and @Brennan will probably beat down my door and strangle me in the middle of the night, but I find the majority of Audi's incredibly boring when it comes to styling.

Has to be the C63s for me.

CLS63 Shooting Brake is cracker too.

 

[Eamo_vxr]

Ah the good old veccy. Really enjoyed that car, the extra room was great. And that V6 snort. 2nd car I bought off @m00k All I done was add coilovers and drive away at it.

A mate of mine bought it off me and gsi repped it. It's quiet tidy when he can be arsed to wash it, still going strong

 

[RComms]

I don't think I'd buy anything but an estate these days. My 850 R and current e91 are definately favourites..... But a cls shooting brake is next on the list! I just think they are stunning.

Stagea Autech 260 for me wish I'd never broke my RS4V down

 

[mrloaf]

Got the saab 9-5 aero as my first powerful estate, doubt I'll be without one in the future, unbelievably practical!
