Which is the best estate car?
I am looking to buy an estate car and am considering the Toyota Avensis and Ford Mondeo. I have discounted the Honda Accord and Mazda 6 as I think they will be too expensive. I do not want to spend more than £8-9000 and intend to keep the car until it is uneconomical to maintain. Please can you advise which might be the better choice and which version of each that I should look for?
