    has anybody seen any of these yet?

    I may be interested in one. What's the internal space like?

    We are looking at a Ford Territory (don't shoot us!).... Turbo Ghia or FPV model... It has heaps of space and drives quite well for a big car... Yeah, ok, finish is nothing like the euros, but it's a cheaper option relatively...

    Its in dealers nationwide now (saw 3 of them at my local dealer).

    Whether its suits your needs is another story boot space is not class leading if you have a big family.

    yeah, I know, its a sad day, but then again, it's for the missus..

    We are trying to find a big enough car to go on camping holidays with, and one that can take a 40 kilo dog! Not sure if the tiguan is going to suit.... Touregs are too expensive, the territory is cheap, is turbo, is huge (seven seats that really work!)...... only problem is that it's a ford! (I'm a holden man!)

    Is the Caddy Max Life actually coming to Oz?

    After the bitter dissapointment of the Tiguan's bootspace, which meant we will not be buying one .... ever ..... my wife got keen on the Caravelle (128kw TDI 4-Motion). I initially thought it's a bit pricey but might be a good buy next year.

    BUT, a TDI Caddy Max Life might be the go as well.....

    Why? .... With 3 kids I could do with space for other passengers as well.....

    Yes, 3rd quarter have a speak to your local Commercial VW Dealer

    Expect 2-3K more over the Caddy Life equivalent.
    The Maxi Life interestingly enough is bigger than the Sharan and Touran but priced more closely to the Touran
