     quite boring utility transport - much like what you have been driving for the last 10 years or so.

    You seem to have pretty specific, with "boring" being so subjective it's hard to answer, so I think your best bet is to go to a few car supermarkets and see what you like in person.

    Petrol Volvo V40 estate hits most of the requirements, will be plenty fast but could be boring.
    Octavia VRS estate would be less boring to drive, but pretty boring to be in.

    Audi RS6?  Massive boot, petrol, quick enough to be interesting.

    That's a very odd suggestion. Dark, for that matter. When did he stop posting?
  • How about a Civic Type R? :p

    Yes, that's what I did, but that's great because it helps you work out what you want/ need.
