Get a saloon... Much nicer looking.
Also finance is rubbish.... Can you not get a loan from your bank? You'll probably get a better interest rate and no worry about HPI problems if you decide to sell it before you repay. Just my opinion.

Get a Saloon, I had a hatch and switched to a saloon, the huuuuge boot is so much better, seriously.
Also, when its cold and you've put the kids in the car, you can open the boot without blasting them with freezing air while you dump all the shopping etc in the back. Very practical ya see?

I prefer the styling of the saloon. Hatch is quite useful if you have oversized stuff you need to store in the back though.

I'm a father of two (3 years old and 4 years old) and have a saloon ZS180.
No issues whatsoever and easy to go on holiday with them, the boot is huge (same load space as a ZT) fits everything I need for the kids and more!
Buy a Saloon!

I originally wanted a saloon, but got a hatch because as already said, it was available at the time.
Tho tbh its grown on me, its still the biggest boot ive ever owned.

Have owned both. The saloon boot is bigger than hatch. The hatch is good for oversize items where you will need to remove the parcel shelf. Otherwise the saloon can comfortably swallows prams, shopping etc. On a recent holiday with two thirds of the back seat down. My saloon fitted 4 large 23kg suitcases, 2 hand luggages and 3 adults.
