Which Car do you Drive?

[Sultana]

My current car's a Fiesta, but with taking up golf my car just doesn't have enough boot space, so I'm considering buying something with a larger boot. I don't drive many miles, working within 4 miles of home, so I'm not looking for anything too big.

Have any of you guy's gone out and bought a larger car just for your bats etc? Also, which car do you drive?

How much equipment do you take? A Ford Fiesta should be plenty enough space unless you take passengers.

I can fit my cart bag and electric trolley into a 2 seater roadster.

You're right of course, but I can naver be bothered to lower my rear seats. Usually have my cart bag and an electic trolley, sometimes 2 of each.

You need to ask yourself in the current climate do you need to be buying a bigger more expensive to run car than you have, and more importantly would friends do the same for you .

I've currently got a mk3 2001-2009 Mondeo and the boot is huge, 2 Cary bags, 1motocaddy and 1otocaddy cart bag fit in easy, have had 4 carry bags in there. But with rises in fuel any long distance meets I now take the misses car as its far more economical.

When I bought my last car a year ago (2007 Megane) I got it from a "car supermarket", people were staring at me walking round with my golf bag over my shoulder but I explained to the salesman if it doesn't fit I'm not having it.

Mitsubishi warrior should do it fine.

The search function on this forum is cr@p, I know for a fact that there was a thread on this last year but can I find a search string including the word car to return the threads.........?


I drive a Seat Leon, I can get the bats in without dropping the seat if I remove the driver. It only takes a second to drop the seats, at which point I can easily fit two sets of clubs and two electric carts and anything else we need to take. A mate has a Seat Ibiza and can also do said without problems. The wife's car is an Avensis Tourer which we use if we are taking 3 sets of bats, we can get two sets + trolleys in without folding down the seats, one side has to go down if we have the full load of 3 though.

I have a Clio which can take my bag if I remove the driver and an MX5 which I can fit the clubs in the boot and the bag in the passenger seat if I have the roof down

 

[Imurg]

Citroen C3
I can get all clubs and bag and trolley in the boot - just.........

 

[Ethan]

Audi A6. Loadsaroom in the boot.

How the hell do you get the car around without your driver? And surely, you deserve a more prestigious car for him to drive..... yeah, I know, my post reads the same on reflection but I couldn't resist

 

[Hobbit]

Audi A6. It will take 2 tour bags, 2 motocaddy elec trolleys and 11 illegal immigrants - all in the boot.

Citroen Picasso C4 Grand Muddy brown colour with dark blue somewhere underneath this protective layer .

Can be a 7 seater, otherwise has a massive boot that can take all my golf clobber twice over.

Ideal vehicle for transporting my 3 daughters and their drunken friends home from parties at 1am in the morning.

During my mid life crisis phase, i had a Merc CLK230 Avantgarde Soft Top, which was deemed impractical and surplus to requirements by the powers that be

Im not bitter

wee peugeot 106 for me,works a treat and gets good mpg.also strangely enough its the best vehicle i have ever used in the snow,i've seen 4x4's make an erse of themselves as i've drove on by.

Peugeot 207 - if necessary I can fit two bags in the boot (remove woods and drivers), and two trollies (in carry bags) strapped on the back seat.

With the current cost of fuel I have been tempted to look at the 106.

 

[ademac]

I could probably fit 20 sets of clubs in my motor...........but it is a vauxhall vivaro workvan!

I dont usually do any willy waving on the long drive threads so I'm doing it here........ "I've got a bigger one than you!"

 

[Lump]

An RS clio, it'll fit my clubs without woods in the bag straight across. The woods will fit in the boot but its very very tight so I sling them behind my seat.
I keep looking at Skoda VRS's as I need something more sensible

 

[full_throttle]

Honda Civic, takes the clubs and a trolley in the boot
Skoda Fabia, carry bag on the back seat. I have had two sets in with the split seat down, so if required i could drop the rear seat completely and fit in 2 carts and bags

 

[AmandaJR]

I used to have a beautiful MX5 but a nightmare in winter so had to part company. They had a special recess in the boot to allegedly take a golf bag. Fine in principle to get the bag in but getting it out again all the clubs would spill out! So it travelled up front in the passenger footwell and trolley in the boot.

I now have an Alfa Romeo Mito which is great in the snow and clubs/trolley just fit in with the driver up front but I tend to put the whole bag in the front still as it's easier.

Subaru forester turbo not only acres of space for clubs but you will get there PDQ as well
