    CSG 2012 R, Just sold a B6 Audi S4 Avant,2004 Harley Roadglide,2011 V Strom

    I was wondering those who have a second or third vehicle, what it might be? I ask because of concern the R is big enough to handle 99% of the tasks I can currently do with my S4 Avant.

    2010 GTI right now.......once it's gone I'll have the R and a 337.

    a hatch is a very versatile car. I had no issues going from my avant to the R.
    it actually seems to have more rear seat legroom for my son than the S4.

    my other car is a '75 triumph TR6. which can almost fit inside the R

    +1 on this. My DD is and will be a combination of the bus and my road bike. I expect the R to see more action in the winter months though for mountain trips though that my current '88 Toyota Supra can't handle.

    My wife drives a 2009 VW EOS. I'm trying to talk her into the idea of me getting a Jetta TDI for DD duty so the R can chill.
