Wagon Picks for October 14, 2026

Today’s six travel from a factory-manual Caldina in Japan to a rare red Pacer in Australia, a discreet 608-PS Alpina in Germany and a low-mile manual Volvo in Britain. Two California auctions round things out: a supercharged S4-swapped Avant and a playful JCW Clubman. There is character at every size and pace, with important condition notes to investigate and live bids that can change.
