Soccer mom wannabe?

On the way home last night, Bo & me had a little conversation about changing my car. We tentatively made the decision that he'd take my car and I'll get to choose a brand new one! Although, he hinted repeatedly that Mini Cooper S series would be the ultimate car for me. Of course, he's the one who "secretly" hoping to drive it around! As if I don't know that already.

Anyway, I've been having Mercy for that last couple of years. It's fun and she has been nice to me. Hardly given me any problem at all. Only flat tyre once in the last 2 years. But changing Mercy to Mini Cooper will defeat the whole purpose of getting a new car. What a smaller 2-doors car can do to replace (and do a better job at it...) a bigger 2-doors car that has never given me any problem and can fit my golf bag and Bo's too.

So, here's what I'm thinking... and at the same time hoping you guys can tell me what will be the ultimate car for me. I want something with 4 doors of course, not a sedan or compact preferably, yet still something cute and sleek, performance wise I don't really care as I'm not one who race on the freeway. Basically, this car will be more for my trips to the markets, and to the golf clubs (so rear compartment must be spacious) and most importantly, it should be more of a family car.

Here's what I've been considering... Let me know your thought!

Volkswagen Toureg


Mercedes Benz B170


Volkswagen Tiguan

Lucy darling - I had Q5 in mind too! But Audi showroom here didn't have a demo unit, only the Q9 but boy, was that super expensive!

Nicole - I know Mini Cooper is a cute car, but then again. As said, it's going to defeat the purpose of me changing my car.

Dan - I haven't gone test driving any of the volks yet. The thing is touareg is soooo expensive but Tiguan is a new car, not being tested vastly on the road by 'real' drivers yet, kinda made us hesitate now.

Mel - moi, I almost got a Hondo Fit before I got Mercy. It's used to be my dream car bah. So cute kan!? And they have new model but am not sure, we haven't visited honda showroom yet.
