What do we drive to the course?

[thecraw]

A 10 year old Nissan X Trail. The wife has a nice car but I just don't see the point in spending money on a motor. The silver pig has never really let me down, and until she does, she stays.

I have an X-Trail as well. Its a 55 plate and so far its been absolutely bombproof. Coming up too 100k on the clock. It'll probably stay till it dies. Jap or German is my motto when it comes to cars.

Hyundai Santa Fe, plenty of room for 4 people with bags and trolleys.

I had one of those as a hire car in holland a few years back, from ten years of BMW I turned my nose up at first, wow it changed my mind, it was a really nice drive and a pleasant place to be driving round holland!

 

[martybhoy1888]

Drive a ford focus Ztec 60 plate.
Nice reasonably sized car with big boot space.
Can fit probably 3 stand bags and holdall in the boot. Or bag & trolly if need be.
Since iv changed driver to the Burner super-fast would maybe need to take that out and put it in the back seat.

(HAVE MY OWN LOCKER AT THE CLUB SO ONLY NEED TO PUT THE CLUBS IN THE CAR ON AN AWAY-DAY)

What ever I get the keys from work for. Currently a Mercedes CLS500 v8 which is an upgrade from the 2ltr 1999 Honda Accord se I had at the weekend.

My own car is a Ford Cmax Zetec

Rooter, i agree a really nice drive with plenty of space. Mine is a little greedy on the fuel though with it being a 2.7l V6 petrol auto.

 

[Evesdad]

Skoda Octavia L&K Estate. Loads of space in boot, but only ever me and son or me and Father In Law in it. Fits everything in boot, no need to drop back seats.

Just a quick question in relation to the Honda Accord can you genuinely fit in 5 bags and all the other gear without folding the back seats down. Must be small bags.......... I have a mate with an old Volvo 740, biggest boot I've ever seen and he can only get 4 bags in with gear before needing a guard up or seats down for the trolleys

Yep as I've done it!

3 bags along the bottom, 2 bags on top and still just under the seat level. With the dog guard up the rest stacks on top. Plus we had all the shoe bags and stuff in there too. It's mahoosive! Might struggle with five electric trolleys but we had two and three pull trolleys!

Mines a VW Passat, pretty reliable and economical. Just like my golf game

You must have borrowed a mates tvr or Alfa to get to west hill then?

 

[Captainron]

seen less stock in some pro shops

They can now be had for very cheap. No one wants a 2.0L clio that isnt great on petrol.



They may not be the quickest (in a straight line) or most flash hot hatches about but they drive better than anything on the market.

Balls! I've seen you pull out of Garforth Golf Range like the Feds were on your tail! You disappeared faster than an X factor winner.

 

[Tommo21]

2009 Passat estate TDI. Tons of room for my tour bag and powakaddy. Roll back the parcel shelf and I can pile them in. Got a mate in the motor trade so I change my car overy year or so. I've had, oh, 10 passats. It also helps when you've got a mate who works for the main dealer.

 

[Bucket92]

My lovely, red, '03 VW Polo, fits 3 bags in the boot, but with the longer clubs taken out and put in the back with the other person to take care of. It's still going strong after having a new clutch fitted a fortnight ago!

 

[Andy808]

Mercedes Vito traveliner. Also known as the team bus when we are playing away. We have managed 6 players and all our gear for a friendly we had but I'm getting a towbar and building a small box trailer so 8 of us can get in with the clubs in the trailer.

 

[One Planer]

Toyota Avensis.

 

[Wildrover]

Audi A1 Sportback S-Line 185.

Ooooooo.......nice.

 

[deanobillquay]

BMW 120d....in comfort mode

 

[Kellfire]

Saab 9-3 1.9TiD on a 54 plate. Comfort rather than speed for me.

 

[Idlenorth1]

Mazda rx8 and can fit my trolley in the boot and that's it!
Clubs stay in locker unles playing away and then get balanced on back seats which is a tad difficult but the car is worth it
