What estate car?!

[djoptix]

One of my hidden talents is my part time wedding/party DJ business. I am considering a new motor - it must be an estate with a massive boot so I can carry my PA, lights and mirror ball etc. Purchase cost no more than £1500 (very little disposable income right now). Suggestions, chaps?

Volvo V70 or 850, should be able to get an old T5 for that money if fuel economy isnt too important to you.

The last gen Vectra's have a huuuuge boot and early ones might come in budget. Other option might be a Volvo 740/60/960 :?

The Skoda Octavia estate is a pretty good car, but maybe not quite big enough for you.

I borrowed one a while back and would say it is a wee bit bigger than the Golf, and will be a damn site cheaper second hand.

more boot space than all of them^^^^ cheap to run, ferry people around too, and I've put 176k miles on mine and it's cost very little to run.

discovery - heavy, unstable, slow, thirsty and you have to fold the seats down for anything over a paper bag.
