I'm thinking of moving on from my much-loved 120,000 mile Volvo 480. I live in inner London and mainly use a car for quick trips to and from North Wales with quite a bit of driving on country roads and lanes, and some on farm tracks. I seldom have more than one passenger but carry a lot of kit. I'm not a fast or sporty driver but I like to have power to spare and good handling on minor roads. I've mainly bought older second hand cars for personal use, but it seems more sensible to move towards something newer (possibly even buying new). Price isn't critical and I realise I'll be paying more than I've been used to. Are there any models you think I should consider?
