Hi Christian,

Tamar and I love using our Mazda Protege5 for eventing. It can get 
around 31 mpg on the highway, even with a cargo rack on top. Oh yea, the 
cargo rack is a must. That is how I have been able to transport my whole 
family, armor, sun shades, and luggage in the little car.

So, I can recommend the Protege5 or its successor, the Mazda 3 wagon.
