What's gonna be your fishing wagon for 2020?

Must confess that I'm not ready to go electric yet, but I've moved from the diesel Land Rover down to the wee 3 cyl petrol engined Cactus ..... which I think will keep my conscience happy for the moment as a step in the right direction and it's fun to drive 



But I've still got a yearning for a 110 Series lll Land Rover with a V8

Unexpectedly, my fishing wagon (well day to day transport really) is about to change from a Skoda Yeti to something that is not a Skoda Yeti 
I had no plans to change the Yeti which is a brilliant car, but I'm getting into something Swedish again 
Pictures once I've collected it this coming weekend.......

I always fancied a Yeti ..... but something Swedish does sound tantalizing 

[Duncan McRae]

I've had a Yeti for a couple of years now and really can't fault it for the fishing.
A real shame that Skoda have stopped making them.

F**K you Greta!
Still in the planet killing DIESEL Panda 4x4, that HUGE SUV that wears out roads and choke schools to death!!!
Oh, wait a minute, £30 a year in road tax and a small CO2 output, goes anywhere and takes up no room on the road.
F**K you Greta.

PS Epic rods fit nicely in the small boot

Fighting my conscience at the mo. My fishing wagon is a thirsty old 2.5 petrol X Trail. It's my second one. The first one was left in France and used as a chicken coup. The X Trail is surprisingly capable off road. I need a roomy off roader to do my club job leading the working parties.  Three weeks ago two of our members new Discos got stuck trying to follow me across a mud field - their gismo laden vehicles were no match for the basic X trail.  I've lost a lot of money having posh new cars - cars that I dare not scratch and that I could not abuse with muddy waders and wet gear.  Hence the old X Trails bought for two grand.  I am hankering about another pick up truck - love pick ups.

I ran a Mitsubishi L200 pick up for a while in the 90s Terry ...... loved it

Mine at present is a KIA Sportage which I have winter tyres on. Keep them on all year.
My favourite  was my Citroen Dispatch van. Although I used it for work had it all rigged out with seats/stove/rod rack and could still stretch out in my sleeping bag. Would go most places and come the snow I got some pleasure going to the fishing looking at all the fancy mercs/B,M.W.  and others stuck.

If you think a petrol X trail is bad in fuel you should try using this for fishing.

Makes my other wagon seem free to run.

I once took the old landy to Durness to fish the limestone lochs. Took forever to get there and back and cost a small fortune in fuel but I loved every minute of it and I can sleep in the back and get anywhere. Proper fishing wagon, 36 years young and still going strong,

Is she petrol or diesel Eddie? ..... We all know they are not really practical, but they get under your skin

Is it not a recognised mental disorder , "land rover" 

I'm back to a Skoda after a foray into the world of Subaru, very happy to be back on petrol , it smells so much better at the pumps.
Loving this Skoda better than anything i've had before it even shuts down 2 cylinders when it doesnt think you need them, which i think is pretty smart and seems to work really well. You can see her in the background hiding behind the Cactus

You could be right      ...... I'm not totally convinced that I made the right decision and I do miss it.

Mike,

It is a two and a quarter petrol.
