Zombie thread! Well, an update. It finally happened.
The G6e with around 500,000kms has finally gone to the trade-in land in the sky.
It had developed a few issues, and the wife (who has been driving it) wasn't comfortable driving it back to Winton from Brisbane. We were quoted around 5k for all the repairs (suspension, main seal, drive shaft bearing, engine mount, rocker cover leak, new seat belts and other odds and ends)

In the end we had a 10k budget, and while I shopped online my wife visited the cars.

We ended up with a 2016 diesel ambiente mondeo.

It is really nice to drive, and she used a fraction of the fuel she would have driving out here.

It feels like driving a spaceship. A Trend or Titanium would have been nice, but this has all the tech we need.

I just wish I could figure out how to turn off the door chimes!
