Any problems getting the clubs in the boot ?
I have a 15 year old Alfa 156, and my clubs fit in just perfectly. Had it from new, but should last me out.:mmm:
It's a squeeze, and the MPG is not great if you drive everywhere at over 200mph. But it will do me till the new Dacia Sandero comes out.

The wife drops me off in her new Fiesta. One car family and so she can go off and do her thing while I chop it around for four hours or work on my game

BMW 325D - with DMS upgrade - was falling out of love with it when it needed a new DPF recently and felt like the power was choked off - got it drilled out last week and now feels great again - but next car is certainly going to be a petrol - diesel does not suit 3,000 miles per year - I cannot stop looking at 10yr old Mec E55AMGs!

I looked at the Accord tourer before I got the Subaru. The Accord has got a bigger boot than the Legacy, and bigger than a Mondeo estate that preceded it. I can get 2 trolley bags and two Sun Mountain Micro Carts in the Subaru hidden under the cover, I had 2 trolley bags, 2 carry bags, 3 trolleys & a couple of holdalls under the cover of the Mondeo, so if you're prepared to put a dog guard in & load it to the gunwales, 4 trolley bags, 4 trolleys & some odds and sods wouldn't surprise me at all in the Accord.

I had an Omega estate when I first took up golf. Huge boot and if needed the seats folded flat. Then went to a Fiesta van and could still get all my gear in there. Now got a Suzuki Burgman and have not tried to get clubs on it...!!!

Always been a basic car fan since owning a VW Passat.
At the moment it is a Vauxhall Meriva 1.8. Very useful car for golf, bikes, G'kids dog etc.
Wife likes her Fi Fi Fiestas.....very cheap to run, especially as you do less than 5k miles a year!!.

A very standard Ford Focus which is about 7 years old now. Never something I worry about when going to play Golf.

When I (rarely) visit a golf club, it'll be a MK4 Ford Mondeo Hatchback. The boot size is quite ridiculous. I could easily fit 5 or 6 sets of clubs with carry bags, I'm sure.

A very rattly old Focus! Keep my eye out for an upgrade but for the 4-8 miles per week it drives and with a bus service from just round the corner to the golf course I'm not sure it's worth it!

The coolest car in the car park by miles.
Clubs in the boot if I take the woods and hybrid out, on the back seat if I can't be bothered. I'm too young for a trolley.

Hyundai i30 .. not as spacious as I'd like, 2 stand bags and the boot is full. Or my cart bag + trolley.
Need to put the rear seats down to get any real space, but then you can't have passengers in the back.

Hyundai i30s are very nice fella, they really are churning out some quality motors these days.

An early Audi S5 for me.
I've come from a series of smaller cars which were fine for clubs (I checked before buying) but were a real PITA / impossible to get a second set in. As a result, if me and one or more pals were heading for a game, we would go in their car.
The S5 boot, however, is cavernous compared with what I'm used to. It's great.

It varies between the wife's Clio, my MX5 if my bats are in the locker, or my Dad's Passat.

8 year old Focus - I haven't tried to get the clubs & trolley into the Fiat 500, but as there's often one in the car park, I assume it's possible!
