My husband and I are expecting a baby and are looking to buy a new car but we disagree on what is important. I want something practical like a station wagon, but he wants something a bit more sporty. What are the most important things to look for in a car for a young family? Has anyone had the same disagreements and if so, how did you resolve them?

My parents had a similar problem with a 1967 Ford Falcon which they bought new and was still under warranty. We went away on holidays, and I don't remember which part it was attached to but a bolt came undone from under the bonnet.
Bo Mobile Phones back them. A passing Motorist contacted the equivalent of the RAA in SA who came out and fixed it for us. Apparently Ford didn't want to re-imberse them because it wasn't taken to one of their dealers.
After some other incidents. when I helped my Mother buy another car we too bought another brand because Customer Service had left a lot to be desired.
