The practical, comfy daily driver

very nice.
More comfy? Not sure I agree with that one.
More practical maybe. The 4 doors and space I guess but I don't tend to have more than one passenger at once and never carry anything with me.
The running costs are insane but that doesn't mean it's not practical.
I don't really do boring cars tbh. The e92 is a cracking all rounder. Excellent quality, fun when you want it to be, looks ace, sounds ace, brilliant sound system, heated seats the list goes on. As long as your willing to say goodbye to a massive proportion of your wage I don't think you can beat it for the money. If your into fast cars that is.

I have a mate with an e92 m3. Cracking car for sure. It just keeeeeps pulling. But its got a jarring ride over potholes etc which seem to be the basic standard UK road surface these days!
I would call your car more "Stylish and effortlessly rapid"
Truely practical and comfy would be an A6 estate, 2.0 diesel SE with shitty 16" wheels.
Even my Volvo is a bit fun and a bit impractical as its a D5 (2.4 twin turbo) R Des.

Mine seems sweet over pot holes tbh. Rides really well. Even with springs it's dead good.
I kind of know what you mean with a poverty spec something however you'd then not have cracking top spec heated leather seats and brilliant sound system. I tend to think that other than its fuel consumption it's the nicest daily driver that 20k can buy.
The options on mine that make life easy include auto wipers, auto headlights, auto dimming headlights (so full beams dip when a car comes and go back on full when it's gone) auto dimming wing mirrors. I basically have to jump in it, press a button for the auto wipers and other than changing gear I don't have to think about anything. Just sit there in epic comfort listening to biggie smalls at **** whack.

I guess truely practical is throwing muddy boots on the seat and not caring.
I looked at an 18 grand A6 SE (3.0d quattro). There was nothing pov spec about it. Two armchairs, 100 buttons and every conceivable toy. Driving it was like watching a muted video of stuff go past the screen.
My collegues told me i would be an old man if I bought it.
Even 2 cars isnt enough is it? I think I would need 4 to tick 95% of my boxes.
