DP and I are working out if we can afford a new kitchen. The big thing we know will be coming in the next few years is a new car. We currently have a VW Golf which is 18 years old. It's perfect in many ways - room for ERF seats, small enough that the on street parking isn't an issue, but every so often, mainly when we go on holiday, it would be great if the boot was bigger. Roof box isn't an option as we have bike carriers that are almost certainly going to be in use when we're in the position to need extra storage.
Are there any obvious alternatives that are just a smidge bigger? The on street parking means length of car is a real issue, and in terms of the internal we wouldn't want smaller than a Golf. We'd be buying outright rather than going for a finance option (hence trying to work out how much we have to have saved!)
