So on a totally different topic to what normally gets spoken about here lets talk cars. I recently sold my petrol patrol as it was very thirsty and is too high to put my SUP on when I do eventually get around to picking it up off layby.

After something economical, and my mrs and I have a 18 month old boy as well, we dont take alot of gear out with us as I like to try and pack light, but it has to be able to cart my SUP around on the roof as well.

So I was thinking either something like a subaru, outback or forester, or should I just go with a commodore wagon. There the 2 I've narrowed it down too, so would love too hear if anyone has either of these and what there thoughts are on them, or what sort of car you think would work well in my situation.

Any help would be appreciated guys.
