Hello! I've already learned a ton during a couple days reading this forum. Everyone is so helpful and knowledgable! It's with a heavy heart that I search for a replacement for my 12-year old Beetle. It runs great but the interior is falling apart; I've resorted to Gorilla Glue to hold things together! As a photographer with a degree in Environmental Science, I've decided to purchase either a design car, like the Beetle (but with more cargo space), or a hybrid. I put a 16.5' kayak on top and a ton of photography gear in the back. Kate Spade has yet to design a car for me, so I'm considering the MINI Clubman, the FIAT 500L and the C-MAX. After reading this forum, I"m pretty sold on the C-MAX SE with the 203A package (I don't want leather). :camera: Amy
