Suggestions for a fast estate

Beastface

All,


Looking for a new car but my current short list is... short. Any recommendations greatly appreciated.


Criteria:


4 years old or less
< 35,000 miles
Must be an estate
Must be petrol
Must be fast (>250bhp)
No more than £30,000


Current thoughts are BMW 330i and Audi S4 but I'm sure there must be others out there.

Volvo T6. Get an ex police one. They are uprated and cheaper tax.

Update what?

Electrics, other than the additional holes that's it.

When did they stop the M5?

Would you not consider a 535D Touring?
Yes diesel but unbelievable performance (get it tuned by DMS) and reasonable economy.

Police spec Volvo's come with uprated suspension and a few tweaks. They are not the same as production line cars.

They dont all come with holes and damaged paintwork. You just need to know where to look.

Police spec = basic model and updated electrics.

No tweets or upgrades.
