I must be a bit of a bogan haha, as im considering a Sportwagon once my Territory lease is up. Great handling, economical, powerful, aussie made, and none of the 'euro tax' you get on a European cars out of warranty ($1100 alternators on an Astra for example).
I thought about a Mondeo wagon as it looks great and im sure will handle well. But im predicting it suffers the typical trick of a small engine in a big body, so you get the double whammy of crap fuel economy and gutless power, but I am willing to be proven otherwise if I take one for a spin. But I do like supporting Aussie industry and prefer rear wheel drive, so its maybe not the car for me even if it is good.
I guess looks are subjective, I think the Holden looks fine, but im not really known for my taste. I have never been a wagon person until the Territory, now il probably never go back to sedans. An FG G6E wagon would be number one on my list if it was available.
