....we are picking up a CPO 2011 Q7 TDI tomorrow. I think it's the Premium model with a few options....namely a sunroof, 3rd row seating, towing package... It will be wife's vehicle. Can't wait. I am thinking we'll get better real world fuel mileage than our 2003 CRV (5 spd) that got totalled a few weeks ago (10L/100km). We looked at a Kia Sorrento (a bit small for what we want), and an Acura MDX (not great in gas mileage).
The one we are buying also has the rear camera, parking assist, and folding mirrors, so I am not sure if it is a deleted Premium Plus, or what... The insurance slip the agent just emailed shows it as a 'Premium Plus', anyways it's brown on brown. It will come with a removeable roof rack and a set of winter tires/wheels.
Our kids are 7 and 9, and my wife wants the extra seats, just in case we need to share rides for hockey or ringette.
