Currently a '14 Volvo S60 T5 AWD... like the car a lot but with the 996 now as the summer car, I'm looking to move to an SUV for the MN winters - thinking Touareg or MB GLK/ML

New addition to my collections:
Corolla 2014. bought initially for my eldest as "his" commute as he wanted a stick!
But then he moved to the UK for his studies. No it is used for kids to be dropped off at school.
2000 cc engine.
6 gear stick.
pretty basic model (no central locking. Handle for windows).
But fun to drive!
Takes family of four on medium trips in comfort.
very much recommended.
only has 15000 km over last 4 months. (Driven mostly by family driver)...
