Good afternoon from sunny lake Garda, I have owned my 2014 D4 since 2017 and she as served me well in that time with not any major problems, I have renewed the extended warranty every year but at 10 years old in March and I am not able to renew the warranty anymore I am looking at replacing it, but the question is, what with that will give me the same space required, any ideas?

Bluntly, nothing space wise.
I understand you cannot get a full size pallet into a D5 even if you ignore that it looks like a suburban smooth SUV only fit for off roading in Sainsbury's car park.
I sold my D4 6 months ago after 11 years of happy but expensive ownership.
Now I delight (!) in the joys of a Dacia Duster. It is seriously good off road.
I hope that by summer 2025 an electric 4x4 with proper ground clearance will appear but time is running out...
