Weird question, new car and fishing gear

Recommended Posts

my cars just been written off (dont ask, not my fault anyway) and i am gonna have rto buy a new car, for work, days out and to take 2 people fishing,

 

is a ford focus big enough for 2 sets of coarse match tackle (2 seat boxes, 2 holdalls, 2 bait bags and bits)

 

ive only got about 2k so its gonna have to be a used car, but dont want an estate car cos i thhink they are ugly, any reccomendations people ?

I should think a Focus might be big enough. I've got a Peugeot 406 estate (i know you said you didn't want an estate) but it's huge.! Me and my son take everything.... including the kitchen sink and there's loads of room.

I have an Audi A4, its bloody useless for getting tackle in, i just about get what i need in and have no chance of getting two lots of tackle in and i dont take that much. I use to have Sierra estate it was brilliant with loads room.
