bug-eyed Ford Scorpio {{shudder}} That was one car that fell from the top of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down 🤣

What was wrong with car designers in the 90's? I mean, Fiat Multipla FFS 🤣

Mate of mine had one of those for a while, got it free, still felt like he was over charged!

Scary thing was, they made a second version of it! Thing looks like it's had a gastric band around the middle!
 
Alphards are a bit grandad, especially the interior. Insurance quotes may be a factor in your decision. I'm still looking at quotes and they're all through the roof for me for both E50 and E51. It's depressing. Not bothered looking at Alphard quotes
 
Funnily enough, I'm going to be a grandad later this year, maybe I should get the alphard?....NAH!

If you can wait a while to collect any new to you car, get the insurance quotes for a couple of weeks time, it totally brings the cost down on some of the robbing gits! Being an old fart in a lower risk area, I'm getting pretty reasonable quotes myself. Hope you find a solution.
 
Tbh, I really like the E50 look, but sadly Edinburgh council are all a bunch of c*+ts and seem to hate cars of any kind, but especially older petrol/diesels. Even worse, 30+ year old cars are exempt from the fines, but only UK original vehicles, not imports! 🤯

At least the E51 can be properly classified as ok even those that are older than 2006.

Ugh, Edinburgh Council are pretty bad, I stayed in Musselburgh for a year and Edinburgh City for a few months. I've never seen such terrible roads, and a system so inadequate to cope with snow
